Women lose or forgo £300,000 over their lifetime because of the gender pay gap. Join our campaign for Fair Play on Women’s Pay.
If you thought the gender pay gap was a thing of the past, then think again.
Men STILL get paid 17.2% more than women, and the average woman will lose or forgo £300,000 over her lifetime because of the gender pay gap.
This is an issue that affects every woman, not just those doing part-time or lower-paid roles. Full-time women earn less than men in every occupation – and last year the gender pay gap among managers in Britain actually increased.
We want to change this – and that’s why Theresa May, the Shadow Minister for Women, has teamed up with TV presenter June Sarpong to launch the Fair Play on Women’s Pay campaign.
Theresa will introduce an Equal Pay and Flexible Working Bill in Parliament – and with cross-party support, we can pass effective legislation to help narrow the pay gap.
But we need to do more than just pass a law. We must all join together to raise awareness of this vital issue – and with YOUR support, our campaign can make a real difference.
