Latinas are paid, on average, 54 cents to every dollar paid to white, non-Hispanic men. This number includes all Latinas with reported earnings, like part-time, seasonal, and migrant workers. For full-time, year-round workers, the wage gap is 58 cents for every dollar paid to white, non-Hispanic men. This means, on average, that Latina workers stand to lose about 1.2 million over the course of a 40-year career due to the wage gap. These disparities are a clear reflection of the economic hurdles Latinas continue to face.
