Before the coronavirus pandemic the government had reduced the gender pay gap to the lowest level on record. In December 2018, the government legislated five days unpaid family and domestic violence leave as the new minimum entitlement for employees in the National Employment Standards. On 6 October 2020, the government released the 2020 Women's Economic Security Statement. In addition to significant community-wide measures in the budget, this $240.4 million package provides targeted support for women to strengthen their employment opportunities, paid participation and flexibility. There's more work to do and the government is committed to improving women's economic security and closing the gender pay gap.
