What is the best course of action to deal with the gender bias in our society where professions dominated by men are considered more valuable than those dominated by women? For example, an elementary school teacher with a Masters degree in Education is not paid the same as those in male dominated professions, such as Mechanical Engineering. I say the government should enforce prevailing wage based on educational attainment and time in service to remove the discrimination.
Employers should have a set salary based on your educational attainment and your time in service. Your employer can not pay you more or less, regardless of gender ratio in your field.
There should not be scattered unions. All workers in the country should be in one union together and your field should be irrelevant. I am not talking about Communism. I am not talking about everybody getting paid the same. You would be paid based on your skills. If you have a High School diploma and 3 years of work experience, you get paid a certain amount per hour. If you have a 4 year degree and 6 years of experience, you get paid more.
