Equal Pay Day 2023

Today, March 14 is Equal Pay Day 2023.

If you are the average of all working women in the U.S., TODAY is the day that you’ve earned as much as the average working man did last year.

The gender pay gap, when expressed in actual time worked, is as real as a slap in the face.

According to the AAUW (American Association of University Women) “Women working full-time, year-round are paid 84 cents, and all earners (including part-time and seasonal) are paid 77 cents for every dollar paid to men.”

Here’s a breakdown by ethnic group: 

“Black Women’s Equal Pay Day is July 27. Black women working full-time, year-round are paid 67 cents and all earners (including part-time and seasonal) are paid 64 cents for every dollar paid to non-Hispanic white men.

Moms’ Equal Pay Day is August 15. Moms working full-time, year-round are paid 74 cents and all earners (including part-time and seasonal) are paid 62 cents for every dollar paid to dads.

Latina’s Equal Pay Day is October 5. Latinas women working full-time, year-round are paid 57 cents and all earners (including part-time and seasonal) are paid 54 cents for every dollar paid to non-Hispanic white men. 

Native Women’s Equal Pay Day is November 30. Native women working full-time, year-round are paid 57 cents and all earners (including part-time and seasonal) are paid 51 cents for every dollar paid to non-Hispanic white men.
