This paper examines the fundamental issues of gender equality in the workplace. Gender inequality is omnipresent and cross-cultural, irrespective of geography or the nation's GDP. The paper thus seeks to explore the works of women in various occupations and the complaints they raise against the persistent wage gap, the so-called pay gap. There is a distribution of women about the spheres of their active engagement and working areas available, and men have managed to retain most of the 'good' spheres.
