This Thursday 15 May at 8am a delegation of working women and their whānau will attend a multigenerational pay equity forum at Parliament to share the impacts on their lives of the Government’s decision to gut the Equal Pay Act.

The event will be hosted by Labour and the Greens in the Labour Party Caucus Room. One of the families will be available to speak with media.

“Pay equity is about ending pay discrimination for working women and lifting the wellbeing of whānau. We’re so grateful that some of the most impacted families have agreed to share their pay equity stories with MPs,” said NZCTU Secretary Melissa Ansell-Bridges.

“We will keep fighting to ensure the voices of working women stay front and centre in the campaign to protect pay equity,” said Ansell-Bridges.
