Almost 9 million working women are set to retire before seeing equal pay
MILLIONS of women will retire without seeing equal pay as a result of the Tories’ failure to close the gender pay gap, Labour said ahead of Equal Pay Day today.
Today is the day when women effectively stop getting paid for the rest of the year compared with men.
Around 8.5 million women will go their whole careers without ever receiving equal pay unless the government takes urgent action, Labour said.
