Covid 19 Workplace Gender Gaps And Women S Mass Unemployment The employment response to covid 19 was delayed to the second quarter when male and, to a greater extent, female employment collapsed, and the gender employment gap widened. the removal of lockdown measures and economic revival narrowed the gender gap in employment in the subsequent quarters. The covid‐19 pandemic has affected nearly all the aspects of society since it's onset in early 2020. in addition to infecting and taking the lives of millions of global citizens, the pandemic has fundamentally changed family and work patterns. the pandemic and associated mitigation measures have increased the unemployment rates, amplified. The most significant gender gaps identified in our study show intensified levels of pre existing widespread inequalities between women and men during the covid 19 pandemic. political and social leaders should prioritise policies that enable and encourage women to participate in the labour force and continue their education, thereby equipping and enabling them with greater ability to overcome. We explore whether covid 19 disproportionately affected women in the labor market using cps data through the end of 2020. we find that male female gaps in the employment to population ratio and hours worked for women with school age children have widened but not for those with younger children.
