Equal Pay Day symbolizes the number of days that women have to work longer to earn the same pay as men earned the previous year. It is calculated based on an internationally accepted formula. The objective is to communicate that currently there are still wage gaps, raise awareness about this social reality and try to get the issue of pay inequity to be discussed in the media, make women aware of the need to defend their own interests and make this fact visible at the government and company level so that they can change their gender policies.
