KSA Female Teachers Demand Equal Pay, Status
According to Arab news, Saudi Arabian female teachers have demanded the same pay and status as their male counterparts, and are to file a court case against the Ministry of Education to enforce their demand.
Mona Abdul Aziz, spokeswoman for the campaign, said that teachers both male and female have been demanding these rights for two years as part of a campaign group established to champion the rights of teachers, regardless of gender.
Female teachers who graduated between 1994-2004 and 2005-2007, numbering over 67,000, have been worst affected, said Abdul Aziz, adding that the difference between their wages and their male counterparts was over SR5,000.

Its nt that women have to work less or they are given any special privilege.
Its nothing but to make them financially dependence.
