Equal Pay Day

April 16, 2024 is Equal Pay Day. It symbolizes how far into the next year the average woman must work in order to have earned what the average man had earned in the previous year.

Intersectionality

The pay gap is not just about gender. The gap increases substantially when intersecting with other forms of discrimination such as those experienced by:

  • racialized women

  • Indigenous women

  • immigrant and migrant women

  • women with disabilities

  • elderly women

  • women who identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, and queer (LGBTQ)

Discrimination in pay is not limited to one career or demographic. Pay discrimination affects women of all ages, races, and education levels – regardless of their family decisions.

Pay gaps are a human rights violation. It’s time to speak up.
