CLOSING THE GAP

Gender wage ratio data show that in 1960 women earned 60.7 cents compared to a dollar earned by men. More than 50 years later the ration hovers at 76.5 cents to one dollar.  At this pace, it is projected it will take another 45 years to approach pay equity.

Closing the Gap explores why the pay gap persists and how to improve it. We hope to arm women with information and skills to assist them in earning fair pay throughout their own careers and toward a secure retirement.
