Today we observe Black Women’s Equal Pay Day, a symbolic reminder of a real and persistent problem. Women are still paid less than men and the pay gap is even larger for Black women and other workers of color. The EEOC’s data dashboard featuring aggregate 2017 and 2018 pay data reported by more than 70,000 employers representing 100M workers showed pay disparities based on race and sex in almost every industry at the national level and in nearly every state. Black employees generally were in lower median pay bands than white employees in the same industries and job categories and Black women were paid the least, along with American Indian or Alaska Native women. The EEOC is committed to combatting pay discrimination and advancing equal pay for Black women and all workers.
