Male deputy controller of examinationses in Brazil earn an average of 111,000 BRL a year, while female deputy controller of examinationses earn around 104,040 BRL.

Over a typical thirty-year career it can add up to several years of pay, and it compounds through pensions, retirement contributions and bonus-linked stock. Some of the gap is explained by women being more likely to work part-time, take career breaks, or be steered toward lower-paying specialisations. Some of it is straightforward unequal pay for the same job, which is harder to defend.
