Today is Equal Pay Day
TODAY | March 24
Today, March 24, 2021, is Equal Pay Day, which signifies how far into the new year the average woman must work to be paid what the average white man was paid the previous year.
This year’s Equal Pay Day is especially important, as the pandemic may be sending us backwards when it comes to gender equality.
We know that women have left the workforce at a rate four times higher than men during the pandemic, with Black women and women of color leaving at higher rates.
