Women In the Workplace:

Event Overview

When the pandemic struck, more than two million women dropped out of the labor force virtually overnight. Now, three years later, the number of women working has almost fully recovered. The U.S. Department of Labor reports that the labor force participation rate of women is 57% as of January 2023, back to pre-pandemic levels.

While this represents a positive step for companies and working women everywhere, the fragility of women’s participation in the workforce was on full display, and the gains over the past 50 years were eliminated almost instantly. So what can employers do to move toward greater inclusion and support of women in the global workforce?

During this webinar, Stacia Marie Jones, Esq., and Richard Butler will have a candid conversation, examining the current state of women in the workplace.

This session will provide insights into:

• Women’s inclusion and representation in the workplace
• How employers today can acknowledge systemic challenges and institutional barriers
• What companies can to do support women of all backgrounds
• Practical strategies and takeaways used to attract women in the workforce
