Researchers have found that women have an easier time negotiating when they're advocating for other people rather than themselves.

There is usually abit of an embarrassed smile, they typically don’t have a figure in mind, or aren’t prepared to give it to me and more often than not, they push the ball and ask what’s on offer. We just don’t seem comfortable asking about money. ”

According to UASA, South Africa had a stagnant median gender pay gap of between 23% and 35%, despite various pieces of legislation aimed at preventing gender discrimination in the workplace, and the Covid-19 pandemic has increased the projected time to close the pay gap from 99,5 years to 135,6 years. These numbers show that while women have come a long way in establishing equality in society and work environments, there is still a long road ahead.
