End the gender pay gap in a generation, TUC says on Women's Pay Day
THE TUC is marking Women’s Pay Day today by calling for this generation of women to be the last to suffer pay inequality.
The union federation said the current gap stands at 14.3 per cent, meaning the average woman effectively works for free for nearly two months of the year — up till today — compared with the average man.
TUC general secretary Paul Nowak said: “It’s shameful that working women don’t have pay parity in 2024. We can’t consign yet another generation of women to pay inequality.
