International Equal Pay Day, celebrated on September 18th, is a day to remind everyone that people should get paid the same amount of money when doing the same job, no matter if they are a boy or a girl, or come from different places. It's about fairness and making sure no one gets less money just because of who they are. On this day, people talk about why this is important and what can be done to make sure everyone gets the same pay for the same work. It's about making the world a fairer place for everyone.
