In this podcast episode we discuss the latest installment in our award-winning series, “A Woman’s Place”, identifying three areas in which governments and companies can do more to boost female participation in the workforce.
Authors Stephanie Kelly and Abigail Watt discuss how tax rates can discourage women from paid work and suggest how governments can lower this barrier.
The research also examines how childcare cost and availability are deterring women from paid work and how such obstacles reinforce both gender and ethnic inequalities.
