Who?
We believe that all working people deserve fair pay, respectful working conditions, and opportunities to
advance. Since 1973, Women Employed has been leading the fight to make work work by mobilizing people
and organizations to expand employment and educational opportunities for ALL working women.
What?
Our upcoming annual fundraising gala, The Working Lunch,
brings together over a thousand supporters, advocates,
business leaders, and public officials with one common
cause: to improve the lives of working women.
We’re building our network of volunteers to help support
this important event-which provides Women Employed
with the critical funds that advance our work-and we
would love for you to join us!
"It was a great opportunity to learn more
about Women Employed and witness an amazing panel!

Mission Statement
The mission of Women Employed is to improve the economic status of women and remove barriers to economic equity.
Description
Women Employed has one passion: to make life better for working women. We believe that all women deserve full and fair economic opportunities. That means better career options and higher pay, more opportunities for training and education, and strict enforcement of fair employment laws.
Women Employed is a leading national advocate for women's economic advancement. We analyze workplace issues, educate policy makers, and build support to improve opportunities and incomes.
Since 1973, Women Employed has fought to outlaw pay discrimination, pregnancy discrimination and sexual harassment and to strengthen federal equal opportunity policies and work/family benefits. We've connected thousands of women to education and training that lead to better jobs.
The changes we have won in government and business policies have improved the working lives of millions of women, yet millions more are struggling economically. Today our biggest challenge is to enable more women to earn family-supporting wages.
