24.01.2022 New Zealand have just passed a law supporting pay equity, which looks not at equal pay for equal work, but equal pay for work of equal or comparative value. Such a law raises the value of "women's work" - which has often been undervalued in society - and in effect, accelerates positive progress towards achieving gender equity.
