Today marks the beginning of Women's History Month, a yearly observance since 1987! This month is dedicated to recognizing the often unacknowledged contributions of women to the history, culture, and society of the United States. The theme for this year is "Women Who Advocate for Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion". At JLM, one of our core values is Diversity, and we are dedicated to promoting diverse, equitable, and inclusive practices both personally and professionally. Do you know any women in the business world who champion Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion?

As we continue to honor Women's History Month, it's crucial to champion pay equity within organizations. Pay equity isn't just about fairness; it's about recognizing the intrinsic value of every individual's contributions, regardless of gender. When women receive equal pay for equal work, families are better supported, communities thrive, and businesses benefit from diverse perspectives and talents. By closing the wage gap, we have the opportunity to uphold the principles of justice and equality central to women's history. Let's empower women to negotiate for their worth, challenge outdated norms, and create workplaces where everyone has an equal opportunity to succeed. #equalpay #womeninbusiness #payequity

Yesterday, many men questioned the extensive celebration of Women's Day, wondering why there isn't a similar focus on Men's Day. It's a valid concern, especially considering the progress women have made. Women are now more liberated, working across all fields, taking on leadership roles, and breaking free from traditional roles. Indeed, life for women has evolved, and challenges have diminished. It's true; we've witnessed positive changes - women are educated, empowered, and leading in various sectors. However, the significance of Women's Day persists. Celebrating Women's Day isn't about portraying women as limited or confined. It's a moment to recognize and reflect on the substantial progress made. It serves as a reminder of the ongoing work required to achieve complete gender equality. While women have achieved milestones, the push for equality is a continuous journey. The celebration of Women's Day emphasizes this ongoing effort. It reminds us that despite the advancements, there are still areas that demand attention – equal opportunities, fair pay, and representation, to name a few. In essence, Women's Day is not just a celebration; it's a reflection on the journey so far and a call to action for the future. It's an acknowledgment of the collective effort needed to create a world where every individual, regardless of gender, can thrive. So, while acknowledging the positive shifts for women, Women's Day remains a significant occasion. It's a day to celebrate accomplishments, inspire further progress, and unite in the pursuit of a more equitable and inclusive world for everyone. Happy Women's Day to you all! Here is a video by Newsweek showing a quick recap of the start of Women’s Day. Why Do We Celebrate International Women's Day? A Look Back At The History https://lnkd.in/gET4Pjrq
