Campaigners for equal pay for men and women highlight today as the point in 2017 when a woman on an average wage stops being paid relative to their male counterparts.
But it's not the same across all areas of the UK.
In some areas the gender pay gap is so wide, it is as though women work unpaid from September, BBC News reports.
The clickable map shows the gap is not that wide in Cambridgeshire, where the gender pay gap of 8.5% is the equivalent of women working unpaid from 29 November.

However, the gap in Peterborough is significantly higher than the rest of the county.
At 19%, it effectively means women in the city are working unpaid from 22 October.
Vivienne Hayes, chief executive of charity the Women's Resource Centre, said: "Even though we have had a law since 1970 outlawing the practice of sex discrimination in pay, our progress is probably not even at a snail's pace."
Cars stuck by Black Cat roundabout for 'hours'
Drivers stuck on the A421 by the Black Cat roundabout say they haven't moved for "hours".
Lisa Roerig has been stationary for several hours and says: "Looks like I won’t be going to the England vs Germany game. "Stuck on #A421".
She added: "If you are on the #A421 towards Black Cat Roundabout, get off if you can."
Highways England says the road remains closed westbound between the A1 (Black Cat Roundabout) and hte A4280 because of an accident between three lorries.

There are long delays near the Black Cat roundabout at Wyboston in Bedfordshire because of a crash between three lorries.
Police have confirmed the A421 has been closed.
There are reports that four fire engines and the police are in attendance.
The East of England Ambulance Service says "two rapid response vehicles, an ambulance and a unit from our Hazardous Area Response Team (HART) are at the scene".
It's affecting traffic between Bedford and St Neots just over the border in Cambridgeshire.
Drivers have taken to social media to say they've been stuck for more than an hour and are not moving.
A fault with the hot axle box on the right-hand driving wheel caused Flying Scotsman to break down last monthImage caption: A fault with the hot axle box on the right-hand driving wheel caused Flying Scotsman to break down last month
The famous locomotive will make its way from Norwich to Ely, then on to London via Cambridge.
British Transport Police is warning fans to stay off the tracks and only watch or take photographs "from a safe vantage point".
The company that operates the locomotive stopped publishing exact timetables for Flying Scotsman's journeys after several incidents involving trespassers on the tracks.
Flying Scotsman was built in Doncaster in 1923 for the London and North Eastern Railway (LNER).
In its time the locomotive set two world records for steam traction.
It became the first steam locomotive to be officially authenticated at reaching 100mph (160.9km/h) on 30 November 1934, and then set a record for the longest non-stop run by a steam locomotive when it ran 422 miles (679 km) on 8 August 1989 while in Australia.
It was retired from regular service in 1963 after covering 2,076,000 miles (3,341,000 km).

Invasion of rogue river weed to be tackled in Cambs
River users in Cambridgeshire are so concerned about an invasive weed taking over the waterways, they have written to Michael Gove, the Minister of State for the Environment.
The chairman of the Great Ouse Boating Association is urging the Department for the Environment, Food & Rural Affairs (Defra) to "push" the government's Environment Agency to clear swathes of floating pennywort, which are covering parts of the River Cam and River Great Ouse.

Pennywort has spread across Bottisham sluiceImage caption: Pennywort has spread across Bottisham sluice
The weed is an invasive plant that arrived in the UK in the late 80s and has since "caused havoc in the environment", according to the agency's website.
It spreads "like a lush green carpet [and] is one of nature’s enemies, growing up to 20cm a day and suffocating native plants and fish".
The boating group has told the minister that navigation is "suspended" on parts of the Cam and Great Ouse and the agency has not acted fast enough to clear it.
They've not yet had a reply from the minister, but a Defra spokesman told the BBC they were "taking a robust and comprehensive approach to tackling [invasive species] and protecting the
areas they blight".
"In the coming weeks the Environment Agency's six weed harvesting boats will be out again targeting floating pennywort on the River Cam [and] that work continue until the end of the year," he said.
"The agency has been combating floating pennywort on the Great Ouse since 2003 and has removed many thousands of tonnes, but it is an ongoing battle and the recent mild winters, warm summers and low river flows have created ideal growing conditions."
