WTS Philadelphia’s Post

In honor of National Parents’ Day (Sunday, July 28th), we highlighting the gender pay gap that persists in several industries, including transportation-related fields, which significantly impacts working parents. Gender pay gap is the difference in earnings between men and women in the workplace. According to the Pew Research Center, in 1982 American women earned approximately 65 cents for every dollar earned by men. Over the next 20 years, that pay gap shrunk to 80 cents to the dollar in 2002. However, in 2022, American women earned approximately 82 cents for every dollar earned by men, reflecting only a minor reduction in the pay gap over the 20-year period between 2002 and 2020.
