Mind The Gender Pay Gap

The COVID-19 pandemic has thrown the whole world into an economic crisis, and Malaysia is not spared. While our economy seems to be on the mend, in conjunction with the first International Equal Pay Day which happened last Friday (18th Sept), we take a look at how the economic crisis will impact the gender pay gap in Malaysia.
