For the past 2 decades, the earnings gap between genders has narrowed for pharmacists, making it 1 of the smallest for a high-wage profession. Gender bias is reflected in 2 main areas, pay and opportunity. The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is the largest integrated health care system in the country, and the authors performed an analysis to see if there was any evidence of gender bias within its pharmacist workforce. The distribution of pharmacists by gender, age, and years of service was examined and whether part-time employment had any impact was also studied. Overall, there is a high degree of gender egalitarianism in terms of pay and opportunity for pharmacists at the VA. The level of step achievement, and thus, pay for men and women, was not associated with gender but rather years of service.
在过去的 20 年里，药剂师的性别收入差距已经缩小，成为高薪职业中差距最小的职业之一。性别偏见反映在两个主要领域，即薪酬和机会。退伍军人事务部（VA）是美国最大的综合性医疗保健系统，作者进行了一项分析，以观察其药剂师劳动力中是否存在任何性别偏见的证据。分析检查了药剂师的性别、年龄和服务年限分布，以及兼职工作是否有任何影响。总的来说，VA 药剂师在薪酬和机会方面具有高度的性别平等。男性和女性的薪酬水平与性别无关，而与服务年限有关。
