Within work itself, women have less access to promotion and are disproportionately affected by lack of flexible working, limited parental leave and the high cost of childcare.<\/p><p>Over 80% of the education profession are women, and over the last decades, pay has eroded substantially (over 25%). It is clear that the undervaluing of teachers is linked to the fact that teaching is a majority women profession. Compared to other graduate professions, teacher salaries lag far behind.<\/p><p>The pandemic and the cost of living crisis has not affected us all equally. Women, and colleagues who are underrepresented in our profession as a result of structural barriers have already seen their pay decline in real terms or lag behind for decades, due to inaccessibility, discrimination and barriers to progression. When we consider the gender pay gap, we should also remember that for disabled and BAME workers, this is even wider.<\/p><p>Employment structures aren\u2019t designed for women to thrive, and this is an injustice that needs put right. Pursuing a 10% pay claim for a majority women profession is one way to do that, but we also need to look at the structures themselves, to make sure that work is Fair, for everyone.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c76aef0 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"c76aef0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-d8312be elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"d8312be\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-110ec67\" data-id=\"110ec67\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-212e404 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"212e404\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Possible actions for Equality Reps<\/strong><\/p><ul><li>Consider how you can raise awareness with members about the gender pay justice element of the current pay campaign<\/li><li>Consider the recommendations from the One Thousand Women\u2019s Voices: Recording EIS Members\u2019 Experience and Resilience During Covid-19<\/li><li>Review employer policies and consult with members on how flexible working, parental leave and other relevant policies are understood, implemented and the impact of these in relation to women workers\u2019 participation and access to Fair Work<\/li><li>Disseminate and display the International Women\u2019s Day posters in staff rooms, hallways and on social media.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-6a013bf\" data-id=\"6a013bf\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b5a287c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b5a287c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Further information <\/strong><\/p><p>Posters from EIS Women\u2019s History <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eis.org.uk\/gender-equality\/iwd2022\">https:\/\/www.eis.org.uk\/gender-equality\/iwd2022<\/a><\/p><p>One Thousand Women\u2019s Voices: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eis.org.uk\/gender-equality\/1000womenbriefing\">https:\/\/www.eis.org.uk\/gender-equality\/1000womenbriefing<\/a><\/p><p>Get it Right for Girls: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eis.org.uk\/gender-equality\/girfgguidance\">https:\/\/www.eis.org.uk\/gender-equality\/girfgguidance<\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7799788 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"7799788\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ef25966 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"ef25966\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Please move on to the Next Topic when you are done with this page \u2013 you can always return to view it again later on. <\/strong><\/p><p><strong>Now log into your Padlet to record your reflections, questions and notes.
