Equal Pay

Equal pay refers to ensuring that individuals receive the same compensation for performing equal work, regardless of gender or other characteristics. In the context of feminist ethics, this principle emphasizes fairness and justice, arguing that disparities in pay reflect deeper societal inequalities and discrimination. Feminist ethics advocates for recognizing and addressing systemic barriers that lead to wage gaps, promoting economic equity as essential for social justice. Achieving equal pay not only benefits individuals but also contributes to a more equitable society where all people have the opportunity to thrive and succeed.
