World of Work Outlook for Women in 2024 | 3
Although women are increasing their global
economic power and entering the workforce
in greater numbers, true gender parity is
still far from a reality. In 2023, for every 100
men promoted from entry level to manager,
just 87 women were promoted. Coupled
with the fact that they often desire more
flexibility than leaders are willing to give,
60% of women are considering leaving their
current roles in 2024.
The ManpowerGroup Employment Outlook
Survey sheds light on the world's progress
toward gender equality, with the goal of
closing gaps and increasing productivity
and engagement of global workforces.
The 2024 data illustrated that, across the
globe, gender equality initiatives are on
track for less than half of roles. One-third
of respondent organizations said that while
Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Belonging
(DEIB) initiatives have been set, slow or little
progress toward goals has been achieved.
