    Sexual Harassment-
    38% of women experienced sexual harassment in the workplace and 81% in their lifetime. Women restaurant workers who rely on tips are twice as likely to experience sexual harassment or assault.

    Unequal Pay-
    On average women are more educated yet women still earn less. Some statistics show women earn 80% of what men are paid. Other newer statistics suggests the gap to be even greater.

    Fear of asking to be paid what your worth-
    For women negotiating pay is seen as being greedy or desperate which leads to hesitation. Women negotiate less often than men. 70% of women accepted the salary they were offered while only 52% of men did.

    Women are promoted less often than men-
    Women make up less than 5% of CEOs despite being more educated. A reason for this is due to the lack of female role models. Not having a visible role model can make women feel as if moving into a leadership type role is unattainable ]]>     2020-11-25 15:58:18 UTC https://padlet.com/vat0169/b3im74oq8lobb6li/wish/960297221     What is Gender? https://padlet.com/vat0169/b3im74oq8lobb6li/wish/960301227 gender /ˈdʒɛndə/
