Creators

Description

The COVID-19 pandemic has drastically changed our lives and caused a major shift in the way we work, with millions
of people worldwide compelled to work from home. It has focused the challenges faced by women who work from
home, including managing house hold responsibilities, maintaining work-life balance, and acquiring opportunities for
career development. This paper examines the challenges and opportunities for women as home-based workers. We
review the literature on remote work and gender, and present findings from interviews with women who have
experience working from home. Our study highlights the need for policies and practices that support women's
participation in the workforce, including flexible work arrangements, childcare support, and equal access to career
opportunities.
