Today an issue came up at work. A woman with a two year old asked to be excused from the induction prog which is in a different city.
As we were discussing alternatives, I wondered why only women were responsible for child rearing. And if #women are then why aren’t workplaces more accomodating of these responsibilities. #feminism is not just #equalpay . It is also acknowledging the different needs of women and not letting them turn into disadvantages or reasons to not hire them for a job.

Did you know women in Ontario earn just 87 cents for every dollar men make? Wage discrimination is not just a statistic; it affects lives and opportunities. Understanding your rights can help challenge these disparities. Stand strong against wage inequity and advocate for fair treatment in the workplace.

Unequal pay often hides in smaller bonuses, benefits, or commission rates, not just salary. California law protects against pay disparities based on gender, race, and more. If you suspect inequity, document your compensation and responsibilities. Remember, you have rights and can seek legal help without fear of retaliation. You deserve fair pay for your work!

Estonia seeks delay to EU equal pay rules despite a wide gender pay gap

Estonia seeks to delay EU pay transparency rules by two years despite a wide gender pay gap, citing burdens on firms and growth.

Estonian World

The Estonian Government's argument for opposing the equal pay and pay transparency rules, which were adopted by the Council on 24 April 2023, is not reasonable.

First, equality and transparency of salaries is not adding further burden.

Second, Estonia needs to take pay gap more seriously as it has one of the biggest pay gaps in Europe.

Third, ignoring EU law in such important field affecting lives of people is a mistake.

The problem needs to be addressed, not ignored.

PS Commissioners should not be on holidays in times when the EU is facing significant challenges spanning from oil crisis to inequalities.

Genau - denn der#Klassenkampf hat nie aufgehört und geht munter immer weiter - nur auf viel subtilere und heimtückischere Art und Weise.
Man muss #winwin und #equalpay immer wieder von neuem einfordern.

Gender bias in luxury fashion is often subtle but deeply rooted. From pay gaps to limited promotions, many professionals face barriers behind the scenes. Understanding your rights is key.
