BPW
On April, 15t h
2008, the first Equal PayDay was held in
This great action offers a lot of
advantages for Clubs and Federations, eg.:
External:
-
make BPW visible in a very professional way on both
local and national level
-
make BPW known with a political statement and
attitude
-
get attention and find new
members
Internal:
-
strong topic as bonding agent to unite members in a
Project
-
fortify the network by common
action
To me, it is a very impressing big
action, BPW Germany has successfully started to claim same payments for same
jobs! Let’s hope that this campaign brings the requested effects! Other
Federation are more than welcome to inform about this
initiative.

underpaid all over
