So another Equal Pay Day has arrived and passed but this year are we any closer to actually making the playing field completely level for all sexes and genders?
The fact that we are still having a Equal Pay Day is good that its still in the popular zeitgeist. The main ethos is to provide equivalent wages and working conditions for all.
Equal Pay Day was originated by the National Committee on Pay Equity (NCPE) in 1996 as a public event to illustrate the gap between men's and women's wages.
In Portugal they actually have a Equal Pay Day on November the 17th and in the UK its 10th November
Popular tags on social media are #EqualValue and #EqualPayDay and There are even Equal Pay Day Shirts
