"The Challenges of Women in Employment"
Gender Pay Gap Women earn less than men for the same work in many industries. On average, women earn 20% less than men globally.
Workplace Discrimination Women face bias in hiring, promotions, and leadership roles. Many women are overlooked for leadership positions.
Work-Life Balance Women often juggle career & household responsibilities. Many leave jobs due to lack of flexible work options.
Lack of Maternity Support Some workplaces lack paid maternity leave or support for new mothers. More companies need family-friendly policies.
Workplace Harassment Many women face harassment or unsafe work environments. Need for stronger laws & strict policies against workplace misconduct.
Women in Leadership Less than 10% of Fortune 500 CEOs are women. Encouraging leadership programs can bridge the gap.
The Way Forward Equal pay & promotion opportunities. More flexible work policies. Empowering women in leadership roles.
