Closing the gender pay gap 2018: Focusing on pensions

PES - Party of European Socialists

PES Women launches its 2018 Gender Pay Gap campaign today (28 February), on European Equal Pay Day.

Equal Pay Day is the day each year in spring until which women would have to work to earn the same as their male colleagues in the previous year.

This year's focus is on the pension gap. The gap between the amounts women and men receive when they retire is 39%.

Draft withdrawal agreement gives credibility to commitment to avoid hard border in Ireland. The ball is now in May’s court.

S&D Group spokesperson on Brexit, Roberto Gualtieri MEP, said:  
 

Polish government must face consequences if it refuses to respect basic democratic principles

S&D - Socialists and Democrats
The European Parliament will tomorrow back a resolution criticising the actions of the Polish government that threaten the rule of law in the country. The resolution reaffirms Parliament's support for the decision of the Commission to launch Article 7 procedures against the Polish government in December. The Commission and Council must be prepared to take real action if Warsaw continues to refuse to respect fundamental democratic principles.

S&Ds demand a ban on the pesticides that kill bees and threaten biodiversity

S&D - Socialists and Democrats
Today the European Food Safety Agency (EFSA) published a risk assessment report confirming that certain substances used in pesticides - neonicotinoids clothianidin, imidacloprid and thiamethoxam - are killing bees and other pollinators.
 
Our diversity is at stake since bees started to disappear in Europe in the 1990s, because 84% of plant species and 76% of food production are dependent on pollination by bees.
