Male logistics managers are still rewarded a lot better than their female colleagues. Men with a managerial position in logistics would earn about 10 per cent more than women, according to the Loonwijzer/Monsterboard Wage Index, a report that provides insight into wage trends and the labour market in the Netherlands.
The average pay gap across all sectors is 5.8 per cent. Interestingly, women's average gross hourly wage remained the same at €13.86 in a year, while men's average gross hourly wage fell from €15.19 to €14.72.
Logistics pay gap
In logistics, male managers receive an average hourly wage of €21.3, while women receive an amount of €19.1. This 10 per cent wage gap is not a bad score when looking only at managers' salaries. Indeed, then logistics is the sector where the pay gap is the smallest. The biggest gap within this occupational group is found within the IT & Telecom sector and financial services, where men still earn almost 20 per cent more than women.
