Bridging the divide: Tackling wage gap and ageism

Description
Women have made significant strides in education, workforce participation, and earnings, yet they still face a persistent wage gap and ageism, especially after age 45. This session explores the critical need for financial literacy and solid retirement planning for women, who tend to live longer than men but often feel less confident managing finances. We will highlight examples of companies implementing effective solutions to combat wage inequality and ageism, providing strategies to empower women financially and ensure equal job opportunities at every stage of their careers. Join us to learn how to break these barriers and foster an inclusive workplace.
