More than 30 years since the Equal Pay Act and the Sex Discrimination Act there is still a big differential between men's and women's wages.听
Looking at mean hourly earnings the difference between men and women is 18% for fulltime workers and 40% for women working part-time.

Frances O'Grady, Deputy General Secretary, TUC
Kate Groucutt, Policy Advisor, CBI
Ramatu Sesay, NHS contract worker
Dr Catherine Hakim,听 Research Fellow in the Department of Sociology at LSE and author of Key Issues in Women's Work听.
