Today, I’m meeting inspirational women from business – leaders in Alfreton to students and local councillors in Hucknall.
And I’ve been given some wonderful gifts, including this picture here of Labour Llama.
Here in Hucknall, I’m meeting six firm students taking part in workshops on equality. I want to ensure that when they get a job, they get equal pay.
That’s why today, we’ve pledged the employers would need to prove they are paying women and men the same pay for doing the same work.
We want to close the gender pay gap and deliver a more equal country that really works for the many, not the few.
