YWCA Auckland launches new 'Demand Equal Pay' integrated campaign via DDB New Zealand

As a result, all outrage is directed to demandequalpay.org.nz. Once opened, the website soon becomes unbalanced, just like the gender pay gap in New Zealand. And the only way to even it back up is by signing up with your support.

The campaign hopes to collect an even 10,000 signatures from men and 10,000 from women, in support of introducing the Pay Equality Bill into Parliament.

Says Monica Briggs, CEO of YWCA Auckland: "It is the belief of the YWCA Auckland that by raising public awareness around this issue and giving some education around the facts, that people will debate the issue and just as importantly, pledge their support at demandequalpay.org.nz - so that government can be urged to adopt the Pay Equality Bill, drafted by Dr Judy McGregor, the out-going Equal Employment Opportunities Commissioner. This Bill would give transparency and openness to gender pay issues within workplaces, something which is not possible under current legislation.

"The YWCA Auckland aims to empower young women both socially and economically - this campaign fits very neatly around empowering young women to be economically independent."
