Hi Friend,
Let me ask you a question: Why are women still paid less? Because the truth about the gender pay gap is not so simple. The gender pay gap is not just about one paycheck or one job. It reflects discrimination, the fact that women are overrepresented in lower-paid work, the devaluing of work done mostly by women, barriers to advancement, and the lasting economic penalties of caregiving. |
|
|
And for many women of color, the gap is even wider. |
