This #internationalequalpayday spare a thought for the fisher girls of Stromness during the late 19th century. Gutting and packing fish was tough, mucky work and they’d be paid by the amount of barrels they filled with fish, so had to work fast for long periods.

Equal work should be rewarded equally, but Disabled people in the UK are paid less.

This #InternationalEqualPayDay the Disability Employment Charter needs to be implemented.

It's time for companies to report on equal pay for everyone. buff.ly/9iIhALr

The Pay Transparency Directive was due across the EU over 100 days ago. Yet 22 member states are dragging their feet and women workers pay the price.

On #InternationalEqualPayDay, we call on the Commission to start infringement on late runners. Equal pay is not optional -it's time to deliver it!

On International Equal Pay Day, we highlight pay inequality and invite you to explore our SDG 10: Reduced Inequalities collection. https://ow.ly/ma0b50ZNOfc #InternationalEqualPayDay #SDG10 #ReducedInequalities

Equal pay also means recognising work that often remains invisible and unpaid. ⌛

ERC grantee Valeria Pulignano at KU Leuven studies how unpaid labour can reinforce gender inequalities in the labour market.

On #InternationalEqualPayDay the message is loud and clear:

#EqualPay is not a bureaucratic box to tick.
It is a fundamental #humanright, essential for social progress.
European Commission must act now!

Women are still paid 12% less than men.
They are also less likely to be in the top jobs.

💪 No pay discrimination based on gender.

👏 This starts with implementing the pay transparency directive that was initiated by @greens-efa.eu back in 2022.

We're launching Closing the Dream Gap, a 5-day fundraiser to raise $5,000 to expand access to resources for women & students in need.

We’re ending on September 18: #InternationalEqualPayDay, a reminder that women earn just 77–83 cents for every $1 earned by men.
