For the World Girls Day: demand for fair payment for social professions

A loud outcry for the World Girls Day! The free voters, led by the energetic Gabi Schmidt, call for massive increase in wages in women -dominated apprenticeships. It is high time to finally eliminate the outdated gender play gap of 18 percent, which has been separating the salaries between men and women for four years!

"The frequent decision of women to choose professions in the social sector can no longer serve as justification for lower wages!" Said Schmidt. The numbers are alarming: While women earn an average of only 20.84 euros per hour, men reach deep into their pockets with 25.30 euros! A clear case of injustice that the free voters no longer want to accept!

a clear call to change!

The reigning wage culture must be tested! According to Gabi Schmidt, current studies by the German Institute for Economic Research show that the wage gap in women -managed companies is less than two percentage points lower. This is a strong argument that cannot be ignored! If women are to be seen equally in business and society, salaries in social professions must be raised to an appropriate level!

"The training in professions such as nursing and craft lasts three years. Why should the payments vary so much?" Asks Schmidt and calls for a fundamental reorganization of the payment in systematic areas such as the healthcare system and the educational professions. These not only earn more recognition, but also an appropriate payment!

The reality is unmistakable!

The old conviction that women are financially secured by their partners is a thing of the past! "Everyone has to be able to live well from their income!" Emphasizes the deputy federal chairman. Time is ripe for a change that not only reflects the current realities of life, but also takes into account the needs of the coming generations!

The nation's eyes are directed to the demands of the free voters. Can we finally close the gender play gap and enforce a fair payment for all professions? The signs are there - now it's politics to take the right steps!
