The gender pay gap in Poland remains around 16-18% over years. There is little doubt thus that we have to take action. It is an obligation as a EU member country to implement the Directive 2006\/54\/EC on \u201eequal pay for equal work or work of equal value\u201d. But also smart economics which will boost women\u2019s employment and economic growth. Could Poland diminish\/close the gender pay gap using good practices from other countries? Representatives of social partners \u2013politicians, members of academia, business and employers organizations will take part in this debate.<\/p>\n
