Join us for a discussion on the SheCession! The pandemic has set women’s progress in the workforce back over a decade, with women accounting for more than 55% of the unemployment. Hear what business are doing to take action and what you can do!
In early 2020, prior to the start of the pandemic, women had crossed a major employment milestone and the labor market was booming. For a few months, women outnumbered men in the U.S paid workforce. However, now a year later, over 5 million women have lost their jobs, accounting for 55% of U.S. unemployment. With the pandemic having disproportionately impacted women, especially women of color, in the workforce, many economists are calling this recession a “SheCession”.
With the business community at a crossroads, action must be taken to get women back on track in order to avoid erasing decades of progress. Join us for this panel discussion on what actions some businesses are already taking, but most importantly, how you and the rest of our community can rise to the occasion to stop the “SheCession”.
