Pay inequality for women is not a new topic or a up and coming discussion. Women have been fighting for years for equality in the workplace and equal pay. So it is no surprise that women in the arts would struggle with the same realization that they are paid less then their male counterparts. It is becoming a more common hot button issue
Key Takeaways:
- Pay inequities between men and women continue to be a problem.
- Despite making less than men, women after having children, make more on average, than before they had children.
- Women are forced to make the decision of a career or a family.
“A multitude of studies have reported in recent years that women make a staggering 79 cents for every dollar earned by men.”
