While the U.S. economy is improving, the outlook for women’s employment is not. Recent projections by McKinsey and Oxford Economics estimate that employment for women may not recover to pre-pandemic levels until 2024, two full years after a recovery for men. Women participating in the workforce has already dropped to 57% — the lowest level since 1988 (National Women’s Law Center).
There is a significant possibility that female labor force participation could face its steepest sustained decline since World War II. If these trends are left unaddressed, they work to intensify the existing inequalities and reverse decades of progress toward an inclusive economy for women.
