On International Equal Pay Day, Dr. Sherif Abdel Hamid emphasized that achieving wage equality between men and women is not merely a social demand but a legal obligation connected to international labor standards and human rights. He pointed out that the core issue lies in valuing work itself fairly, rather than just comparing wages, a principle supported by International Labour Organization Convention No. 100. He also stressed that the wage gap problem begins with implementing policies and practices that ensure transparency and objectively assess work, while addressing factors that contribute to widening the gap, such as unpaid work related to caregiving and the negative impact of motherhood on career progression. He clarified that addressing the gap does not mean favoring women over men but ensuring that gender is not used as a criterion to determine the value of work or compensation. Achieving wage justice requires applying these principles in practice and turning policies into everyday actions.
