AWL COMMENTS ON THE GENDER PAY GAP ON INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY

In conjunction with International Women’s Day, four legal association presidents discuss the plausibility of equal pay for women in Australia’s legal profession, the factors contributing to gender pay disparity, and the solutions.

“Gender pay parity in the legal profession is a goal that is achievable,” stated Justine Anderson, president of the Women Lawyers Association of NSW (WLANSW). “However, it will not be achieved simply by the affliction of time.”
