While some industries have made strides toward greater gender parity, the challenges remain significant, particularly in maintaining female employment during economic downturns.
The gender differences in layoffs during 2023 and 2024 reveal a significant impact on female workers across various industries, particularly those that traditionally employ a higher proportion of women.
In 2023, women’s representation in the workforce saw notable declines in sectors such as Consumer Services, Accommodation and Food, Agriculture, and Wholesale. This trend, evident since 2020, suggests a broader pattern of decreasing female employment in these areas. Conversely, industries like Technology, Information, and Media showed some improvement in female representation, although the gains were modest and often did not offset the declines in other sectors.
Moreover, women continue to be underrepresented in senior leadership roles. In 2023, women held only 32.2% of senior leadership positions, significantly lower than their overall workforce representation of 41.9%.

I am into Music, Photography, Fine Arts, Literature, Sociology, Mindfulness, Personal Growth, Nutrition & Crossfit. Friends and Family are crucial... just like Grit, Wit and Kindness. I truly believe that ¨Sharing is Caring¨.
I have worked in a global scale for high profile clients in the music and entertainment industry in Marketing, Digital Marketing and Sales & Streaming. After being hit by Layoffs in May 2024, I tackled a 100 Hour Silent Meditation/10 Day Retreat (it was very enlightening!). Now, I want to focus my 24 Hour Project participation this year on female -including identifying as- street portraits. I will give it a full 24 hours, and I Hope that some of you will be keen on joining me. Thank You!
