 $1.6 trillion. That's how much many women in the US lose every year due to the pay gap. So while this year's equal payday is the earliest we've ever marked the occasion, how far into the year a woman has to work to earn what men earned in the previous year is not the same for every woman. Black women's equal payday is July 27th. Mom's August 15th. Latina's October 5th. A native women's equal payday isn't until November 30th. And if that's not bad enough, a study found that women-dominated jobs are less likely to include benefits and retirement plans compared to jobs held by men. It's 2023. Let's do better.
