Question

write a short note on women centric issues around the world

Answer 1

There are plenty of statistics tracking the percentage of women in the workforce, their qualifications and their salaries, but that data doesn’t show us the whole picture: It doesn’t capture how women feel, how they fare in the workplace day-to-day, the challenges they face. And that is why the Thomson Reuters Foundation, with support from the Rockefeller Foundation, embarked on a global task, asking more than 9,500 women at work in the advanced economies of the G20 for the issues that affect them most at work.

The findings are compelling. According to the research, the issues that concern women the most are:

WORK-LIFE BALANCE

EQUAL PAY

HARASSMENT

CAREER OPPORTUNITIES

CHILDREN AND CAREER
