Equal Pay Day is on August 25, 2023.
In 1969 Australian women earnt the right to equal pay for equal work. But something is still missing.
On average, women in Australian earn less than men. This is called the gender pay gap.
Equal Pay Day marks the 56 additional days from the end of the financial year women must work to earn the same average pay.
