Today is Equal Pay Day, chosen to symbolize the day that the typical woman's earnings catch up to what her male counterpart earned in 2011.
Interested in the topic of gender equity? One of my top "go to" experts on this subject is economic and statistical consultant Stephanie Thomas, who blogs with me at the Compensation Cafe and is the founder of Thomas Econometrics. Click over to the Cafe today and take Stephanie's quick ten question quiz to test your Equal Pay knowledge.
Also note that Stephanie's weekly show The Proactive Employer will be debuting on VoiceAmerica's Business Channel starting next month, still broadcasting every Thursday at 3pm EST, but where the format will be changing slightly to feature 60 minutes of live discussion with some prominent guests. Listeners will be able to call in to speak directly with guests - or tweet their questions during the broadcast. As before, all episodes will be available on-demand at The Proactive Employer website.
And speaking of Equal Pay Day, look at what she has lined up for the May 10 show:
Why Does Sam Earn More Than Sally? with guests Lilly Ledbetter and attorney Robin Shea.
Congrats to Stephanie on the opportunity to bring her talent and show to a whole new audience! Click here to listen to The Proactive Employer live on Thursdays 3pm EST/12pm PST starting May 3.
