Latina Equal Pay Day Highlights Persistent Wage Disparity

Latinas earn significantly less than their white male counterparts, facing a lifetime wage gap of over $1.3 million.

Latina Equal Pay Day marks the point in the year when Latinas' earnings catch up to what white, non-Hispanic men earned the previous year.
Latinas working full-time earn only 58 cents for every dollar paid to white, non-Hispanic men, with part-time workers earning even less.
The wage gap results in a lifetime loss of $1.3 million for Latinas, impacting their economic security and wealth-building opportunities.
Despite high ambitions, Latinas face significant career advancement barriers, including being underrepresented in corporate leadership roles.
Advocates call for legislative reforms and increased transparency to address wage disparities and promote equal pay for Latinas.
