Public invited to speak at October briefing on Utah’s gender wage gap

Utahns will have an opportunity next month to share how they’ve been affected by the gender wage gap in the state.

The Utah Advisory Committee to the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights is holding a public briefing Oct. 3 on the topic at the University of Utah’s S.J. Quinney College of Law in Salt Lake City.

The committee is “tasked with conducting a qualitative study on a civil rights topic unique to their state and voted in a previous meeting to focus on the gender wage gap,” Ana Fortes, civil rights analyst with the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, said in an email.
