Tackling The Gender Super Gap with Senator Jane Hume

She went from being a banking executive to a Senator determined to fix the system. But is the political fight worth it? On this episode of The Pay Off, Sylvia is joined by Senator Jane Hume, the former financial sector powerhouse who stepped off the corporate ladder and into the Senate.  Her mission? To correct the systemic failures that are costing Australian families—and particularly women—billions. Senator Hume has made recent headlines with the Tackling the Gender Super Gap Bill, a legislative push designed to empower couples to overcome the 'motherhood penalty' through tax-free super splitting. In this episode, she talks about her leap into politics, the motherhood penalty and the current Australian political climate. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
