The average monthly wage of Kuwaiti male workers in the public sector is about 1769 KD and of Kuwaiti female workers is about 1265 KD, with a difference of 8.39% in favor of men in the public sector. The average monthly salary of non-Kuwaiti males in the public sector is about 710 KD and of non-Kuwaiti females is about 656 KD, with a difference of 2.8% in favor of males.

That means the difference between the genders is fairer in the case of non-Kuwaitis. The average monthly wage for Kuwaitis of both genders in the public sector is about 1478 KD.
