Well done to @WGEAgency for its latest gender equality scorecard, which deep-dives into the state of gender equality in the Australian workplace. While progress has been made, #WGEAdata continues to show that women are earning, on average $25,534 less per year than men.
Through this data, we know that tackling the drivers of violence against women requires governments and workplaces to lead the change – through addressing the gender pay gap, ensuring equal pay for comparable work and increasing women’s representation at the highest levels.

Today is International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women.
Violence against women is preventable.
Its elimination is possible.
Prevention is possible because we can all take action.

We can all #DoSomething to create an Australia where women and their children live free from violence, but no one individual, community, organisation or government can do it alone.
It takes a shared, consistent approach to addressing gender inequality.
