Last year it was November 4th, the previous year it was 6th and this year it's even earlier.
From Wednesday November 3, 2021, 9:22 am precisely, women will begin to "work for free", according to the feminist newsletter "Les Glorieuses".
This symbolic date and time were calculated, as every year since 2015, from European statistics on the pay gap between women and men in France.
This year, the difference reached 16.5%, against 15.5% last year.
"The wage inequality is widening", laments in a press release the economist Rebecca Amsellem, founder of the "Glorieuses", for whom "concrete measures must be put in place today in order to avoid waiting 2234 to see create equal pay ”.
Further extend paternity leave
In a series of proposals, submitted to candidates for the 2022 presidential election, the “Glorieuses” demand that companies' access to subsidies and public contracts be conditional on progress in this area.
It is also important to "revalue the wages of jobs where women are the most numerous", for example nurses and midwives, insist the "Glorious", who also plead for paternity leave to last as long as the leave. maternity.
“Yes, equality costs money,” observed Rebecca Amsellem, but “the same goes for saving the aviation industry.
And it is a choice that the government is in a position to make for its citizens ”.
