World of Work Outlook for Women in 2024: ManpowerGroup

ManpowerGroup

New analysis by ManpowerGroup on the state of working women finds while significant gender gaps remain, more employers are taking active measures to promote equity through progressive policies, upskilling, and flexibility.

The “World of Work Outlook for Women in 2024” finds less than half (41%) of employers report attaining full gender equity. However, some industries are making progress, including Consumer Goods & Services (69%), Financials & Real Estate (68%), Communications Services (67%), Health Care & Life Sciences (67%), and Information Technology (66%) on the right track.

“In a world of talent shortages, we need everyone contributing to employment in a meaningful way. Bringing women into the workforce with an equal playing field is an economic imperative, not a nice-to-have,” said Becky Frankiewicz, ManpowerGroup Chief Commercial Officer. “Knowing what women expect and need is the foundation for building equity. Actively upskilling, empowering allyship, leveraging technology to enable flexibility – this is how we unlock potential and growth, both for women and organizations.”
