Mothers deserve to age and retire with dignity, yet the #MotherhoodPenalty that deprives them of wages during their work years also leaves them without enough money to retire.

The proposed “doubling” of the time limit for Employment Tribunal claims would be beneficial to those who have faced discrimination due to pregnancy. Read more on this in Thomas Beale’s recent blog: bit.ly/3s4FTYx

Motherhood penalty in action-
enforced by toxic presenteeism school culture and unreasonable senior staff. #motherhoodpenalty #retentioncrisis
Another day, another post from a teacher mum on mat leave being made to feel unnecessarily stressed and vulnerable by unsympathetic, and ill-informed school leader in a life unfriendly school. Any wonder we have a retention issue in education? 😡 #motherhoodpenalty
I look forward to a time when there is no #motherhoodpenalty - and it takes a very long time to change systems. That’s why resourcing women to meet the system we’re in is so important.

A key part of the HE #gendergap is the #MotherhoodPenalty . If mothers are discriminated against at every stage, no wonder it’s men who go on to succeed in academia. Being a dad is a selling point for a man’s career. For a woman it’s a nail in her career coffin. #InvisibleMums
Words fail me a bit here tbh. If you're not actively challenging these types of comments in your workplace then you're part of the problem. #motherhoodpenalty #motherofallpaygaps

MotherhoodPenalty is not a myth. This #MomsEqualPayDay we recognize moms are paid 2/3 of what dads make in the workforce. Moms are more likely to be offered lower salaries, not be hired; be forced to choose between their jobs and caregiving.

On this #MomsEqualPayDay we recognize the persistent #wagegap of 62 cents between all working mothers & working fathers. For full-time working mothers, the gap is 74 cents. This #MotherhoodPenalty means that moms face extra barriers to work & earn less over their lifetimes. (1/3)
