China, Thailand and Vietnam rank top in unequal pay
China, Thailand and Vietnam have the largest gaps between low- and high-paid workers in the world, according to a global study by management consulting firm Hays Group.
China became first in world rankings, as management last year made 11.8 times more than average staff.
Within the Asia-Pacific region, South Korea (3.7), New Zealand (3.3), Japan (3.3) and Australia (3.2) were among the countries with the smaller pay gaps.
