The Covid-19 has deeply affected our lives both on a personal and professional level. This pandemic crisis has jeopardised standard labour markets’ relationships all over the world by highlighting their major weaknesses.
Gender discrimination, together with challenges that women are confronted in everyday life, is one of them. These challenges are faced by women struggling to reconcile professional tasks required from a «home office» workspace with childcare; moreover, women engaged in either paid or unpaid care work, female workers involved in health & care institution who are working under extreme pressure are suffering – at the same time – from new forms of discrimination regarding health and safety working conditions.
These particular circumstances have stressed challenges in gender discrimination in labour market already existing, such as wage gap, gender participation or the question of the childcare obligations and work-life balance.
We decided to give voice to this situation with the organization of an International webConference/webRound to address these issues from a comparative female point of view. We intend to generate a debate table around these problems and possible ways to face them, considering the structural barriers that limit women´s participation in this New Post-Pandemic World of Work.
