The Council is a first-in-the-nation, public-private partnership. Businesses pledge to take concrete, measurable steps to eliminate the wage gap in their company.
Equal Pay. Equal Opportunity. 100% Talent.
The Boston Women's Workforce Council’s mission is to make Boston the best place in the country for working women by removing the visible and invisible barriers to women’s advancement.
We work with businesses in the Greater Boston area to:
Eliminate the gender-based wage gap;
Remove the visible and invisible barriers to women’s advancement;
& ensure that 100% of the talent pool is used to make Boston the best area in the country for working women.
A city priority
(VIDEO) Mayor Martin J. Walsh speaks about the importance of the BWWC mission: “We know that when women succeed in the workforce our families are stronger, our neighborhoods are stronger, and society as a whole is stronger.”
