Signature Event
EQUAL PAY DAY
April 20, 2010
 |
Each year, WSBPW
members and advocates across the country organize Equal Pay Day activities and
events in April to bring attention to the issue of pay equity.
Equal Pay Day is
held annually in April to signify the point into a year that a woman must work
to earn what a man made the previous year.
Census statistics released in 2008 show that the gap between men's and women's earnings changed by less than one percent from 2006 to 2007, narrowing only slightly from 76.9 to 77.8 percent.
In 2007, the earnings for African American women was 68.7 percent of men's earnings, a drop of more than 3 percent; Asian American women's earnings was 89.5 percent of men's earnings, a drop of 3.5 percent; and Latina earnings was 59 percent of men's, a drop of .6 percent.
