Equal Pay and
the Future of Work
Ariane Hegewisch
Program Director for
Employment and Earnings
Institute for Women’s Policy Research
 We
are pleased to announce that Ariane Hegewisch will be our guest
speaker at our upcoming luncheon on April 17th.
On current projections, women will not reach pay equity until
2059, and Black and Hispanic women not until well into the next
century. Ms. Hegewisch will discuss why women’s earnings are
failing to catch up with men’s in spite of women’s increasing
educational attainment and labor force participation. How
automation/AI may impact this inequality? And she will assess
states’ initiatives for closing the gender wage gap.
Ariane Hegewisch is the Program Director for
Employment and Earnings at the Institute for Women’s Policy
Research (IWPR). IWPR conducts and communicates research to inspire
public dialogue, shapes policy, and improves the lives and
opportunities of women of diverse backgrounds, circumstances, and
experiences.
Please join us for what promises
to be a fascinating and authoritative review of critical issues
and prospects for gender wage equality.

The DC LERA is on the cusp
of tidal changes in national labor policies. Battles between
powerful political forces in Washington will determine the
future of work for decades to come. We are a non-partisan
forum in Washington where these conflicting ideas and
ideologies coexist.
We sponsor a series of monthly
luncheons on crucial economic, legal, and social issues in
employer–employee relations. Thanks to our location, DC LERA
draws support from the Washington policy community, with
members and speakers from government, universities, unions,
think tanks, and policy advocate organizations. Our luncheon
programs offer great opportunities for labor relations
professionals, union leaders, policy specialists, scholars,
and students to express their views, enrich their knowledge
and expand their networks.
A special dimension of DC
LERA’s program is international labor relations. We are
honored and privileged that representatives of Washington’s
diplomatic delegations are active participants in our Chapter.
They learn, but they also give back. Attachés and counselors
give us inside views of labor relations in Asia and Europe.
We invite you to join us in
this fascinating journey. You can join or renew by
