The National Committee on Pay Equity (NCPE) is a coalition of women's and civil rights organizations, labor unions, and various associations working towards the elimination of sex- and race-based wage discrimination and the achievement of pay equity. Founded in 1979, NCPE aims to close the wage gap that still exists between women, people of color, and men.
NCPE advocates for pay equity by evaluating and compensating jobs based on their skill, effort, responsibility, and working conditions, rather than the individuals who hold the jobs. The organization highlights the impact of wage disparity on women and their families, affecting Social Security benefits and pensions, and emphasizes the need to address occupational segregation and discrimination in order to achieve fair pay for all.
