Black Women's Equal Pay Day 2024
Mastering Negotiation Skills
Dear Resilient Leaders!
Why is Black Women's Equal Pay Day important?
Did you know that in 2023, Black women lost a staggering $42.7 billion in wages compared to white men? This is a stark reminder of the systemic barriers and job segregation that continue to affect Black women's earning potential. On average, Black women earn only 69 cents for every dollar earned by non-Hispanic white men for full-time, year-round work. These disparities are driven by various factors, from educational barriers and caregiving responsibilities to pervasive discrimination in hiring and promotions. * Read The March 2024 U.S. Department of Labor Still Bearing The Cost Report *

Jacqueline V. Twillie, the founder of ZeroGap.co, a best-selling author, a master negotiator, and a pay equity advocate, will be the guest speaker for ZeroGap.co's LinkedIn Live event in awareness of Black Women's Equal Pay Day 2024. Mark your calendars for Tuesday, July 9th, from 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM because this is an event you won't want to miss!
Systemic Changes Are Essential
At ZeroGap.co, we believe that systematic changes are crucial to eliminate the need for Black Women's Equal Pay Day. We need policies that address job segregation, provide supportive services like child care, improve job quality, and ensure paid family and medical leave. Strengthening enforcement of anti-discrimination laws and promoting inclusive workplace cultures are also key to closing the wage gap.
Empowering Individuals with Negotiation Strategies
While we work towards these systemic changes, we're also committed to empowering individuals. Jacqueline V. Twillie, with her extensive experience and the L.A.T.T.E. Method, will share valuable negotiation strategies to ensure no one leaves money on the table. By equipping Black women with the skills to negotiate effectively, we can make significant strides in achieving pay equity.
Tune In Live
Remember, there will be no recording of this event, so make sure to tune in live on LinkedIn to gain insights from Jacqueline and join the conversation on how we can work together to achieve equal pay.
Join us in advocating for change and empowering each other with the tools to negotiate our worth. Let's make Black Women's Equal Pay Day a turning point towards true pay equity!
