Still Minding the Gap.nz

StillMindingTheGap.nz is campaigning for urgent action to reduce New Zealand’s gender and ethnic pay gaps.

We want the Government to make pay gap reporting mandatory for businesses over a certain size, because it is proven that it is an important step to close unjustified pay gaps.

Invoice the PM

Thousands responded and there was extensive media coverage.
