Census data suggests that the difference in earnings is partly due to more men working full-time than woman. When looking at full-time, year-round workers, the salary gap narrows, but full-time female nurses still make an average of 9 percent less than male nurses.

So based on the video, tenure and FT\PT status can help explain wage gaps noted above.

side note: Based on conversations I've had with nurses\hospital workers\adminstrative staff, hospitals around here are some of the most fucked up places to work.

Lot of politics and other bullshit to contend with, and thats not even the patients.

Racism (in more ways than one), classism, sexism (both ways), practices that would make a labor lawyer's head spin...poorly run over all.

I told one friend he should write a book about what he sees.

I've heard similar from my sister-in-law who is a PA right in your back yard.
