WOMEN IN THE WORKFORCE!

We discussed the struggles women still have in the workforce:

  • Unequal pay for the same professions
  • Women still make 73 cents to every dollar a man makes, which is 4 cents below the national average
  • Maternity leave
  • Childcare
  • Balancing family or home life and work life
  • The Equal pay act that was passed in 1963 still is not inforced or needs a final push
