  • As the core sectors see participation of women across levels, their proportion will only increase. But how quickly will that happen?

The article from MSN discusses the increasing presence of women in core sectors traditionally dominated by men, such as manufacturing, infrastructure, and energy. It highlights that while there has been progress, the pace of change remains slow.

It also mentions initiatives by companies to promote gender diversity through policies like extended maternity leave, flexible working hours, and leadership development programs aimed at women. The narrative underscores the need for systemic changes to accelerate the inclusion of women in these sectors, suggesting that while the trend is positive, much work remains to achieve parity.
