Building Organizations Worthy of Our People #WorkHuman 2019

Women of HR

I recently had the honor and privilege of attending the Workhuman conference for my fourth year in a row. That’s four out of five years for me. I missed the first year, but only because I didn’t know about the event until it was already happening.

Pay Equity Begins With Awareness

Namely

Today, April 2, 2019 is Equal Pay Day in the United States. Last year, it was on April 10. In 2017, it was April 4. Why does the date change each year? Well, Equal Pay Day is held every year on the day that women have to work until they earn the income that men earned in the prior calendar year. In other words, women had to work from January 1, 2018 until April 2, 2019 (today) to earn what men earned in the calendar year of 2018.
