Emma Hayes believes player contract reforms introduced to women’s professional football in England should be replicated worldwide.
The Chelsea chief was speaking after the FA unveiled enhanced maternity, injury and sickness pay for pro players.
Hayes, whose side face Man United in the Conti Cup semi-finals, told Sky Sports: “This has been massively needed and it's another step in the right direction.
“We've got so much catching up to do in our game whether that be about the opportunity whether that be about provision behind the scenes.
“This is needed across the global game. Not just in England
“I think Fifpro are trying to put in place basic standards, basic minimums across the globe to protect the rights of women in football.”
