The Christian Democratic Union (CDU) supports equal pay for equal work. In 2017, the German government, led by the CDU, passed the Pay Transparency Act, which aims to reduce the gender pay gap by allowing employees to request information on wage structures and requiring companies to report on their efforts to ensure equal pay.

Neutral

No, there are too many other variables such as education, experience, and tenure that determine a fair salary

While the CDU acknowledges that factors such as education, experience, and tenure can influence salary, they still support equal pay for equal work and have implemented policies to address the gender pay gap. They would neither agree nor disagree with this statement, as they recognize the importance of these factors but still advocate for equal pay.

Strongly disagree

No, the government should never determine what a private business should pay employees

The CDU has shown that they believe the government has a role in ensuring equal pay for equal work, as evidenced by the Pay Transparency Act. They would likely disagree with the idea that the government should never determine what a private business should pay employees, as they have taken legislative action to address the gender pay gap.

No, this is irrelevant because the gender wage gap is a myth

No, the current requirements in the Equal Pay Act of 1963 are already sufficient
