Equal Pay Day marks the day in the year when, based on the gender pay gap, women overall in the UK stop being paid compared to men.
And this year it falls two days earlier than last year.
It means the gap is widening and it’s just not good enough.
How’d we reach that 11.3% figure? We’ve taken it from the Fawcett Society, which uses the mean, full-time, hourly gender pay gap for the UK to calculate the gender pay gap for Equal Pay Day which this year is 11.3%, up from 10.4% last year.
Our recent You’ve Got What It Takes campaign with Female Founders Rise celebrated female-led businesses and aimed to inspire the next generation of founders, but we want to do more.
It’s why we’re announcing out Gender Pay Gap discount.
Every year the gender pay gap exists in the UK, we’ll offer that disparity as a discount between Equal Pay Day and the end of the year.
YeahNice.
