- Description
A dinosaur with the head of Alasdair Thompson, the head of the Employers and Manufacturers Association holds a paper that reads 'Employer boss - Women take more leave because of babies and "monthly sickness"' and looking a bit confused and bothered says 'WHAT?' A second version has the dinosaur saying 'What's wrong girlies?' Context - Alasdair Thompson, CEO the Employers Manufacturing Association, went on radio to debate a new bill targeting equal pay between men and women and said some women were less productive because they took more time off for things like children and monthly periods. Later in a TV interview with Mihingarangi Forbes he said women took more time off than men because of their 'monthly sick problem'. He has been sacked and the comment has sparked huge debate.
