Resources for Women
While progress has been made in wage equality over the past 20 years, women are still paid only 81% of men's earnings, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.* Over a lifetime, this can add up to a significant amount, making saving for retirement even more important. Women are also more likely to work part time, or leave the work force to raise a family.

This can have a direct impact on the amount contributed toward retirement.

Whether they’ve worked in the home or outside of it, women are a vital part of our economy. And women also retire, although many don’t plan for it. Unfortunately, saving for retirement can sometimes fall low on the list of priorities for women. But it’s never too late to plan and save.
