Women start “working for free” from 4:48 p.m. Friday, November 8, until the end of the year, according to the feminist newsletter Les Glorieuses. Last year, the newsletter set the symbolic date as November 6 at 11:25 a.m. and in 2022 as November 4 at 9:10 a.m.

The newsletter reminds us that this year “the full-time equivalent salary gap between women and men is 13.9% in in the public and private sectors combined and for companies with more than 10 employees.” “The salary gap between women and men with equal work and equal experience is 4%”laments the feminist newsletter on its Facebook account.

Methodology: To calculate this symbolic date and time, the newsletter refers to European statistics on the pay gap between women and men in France.
