Pay equity — the gap between men and women’s compensation — has been a hot topic in the news this year. According to the Institute for Women’s Policy Research, in 2014, female full-time workers made an average of 79 cents for every dollar earned by men — a wage gap of 21 percent. To draw attention to the problem of wage inequity, in 1996 the National Committee on Pay Equity (NCPE) launched Equal Pay Day. We just commemorated that day (April 12) which symbolized how far into 2016 women must work to earn what men earned in 2015.
