Equal Pay Day is today, Tuesday, April 4.
What is the gender pay gap? The story you think you know—that women earn 76 cents on the dollar compared to men—doesn’t paint a complete picture. What often gets overlooked is why the gender pay gap exists; the gender opportunity gap means that women are less likely to hold high-level, high-paying jobs than men.
Today we’re hosting an incredible panel of gender equity experts and business leaders to talk about overcoming issues like the gender pay gap and the gender opportunity gap.
Here’s the skinny on what you need to know to tune in.
