Women leave work at 2:38 p.m. to protest pay gap in Iceland
October 26, 2016 /
Thousands of women left work at 2:38 p.m. in Iceland on Monday to protest the gender pay gap in the country.
In Iceland, women earn 14 to 18% less than men, which means on an average eight hour work day, women are essentially working for free after 2:38 p.m, according to labor unions and rights groups, the New York Time’s Women in the World section reports.
