THE SHE WORD WOMEN IN BUSINESS EDITION SEEKS TO EMPOWER WOMEN IN BUSINESS BY SHARING THEIR COMMON CHALLENGES
Women in Business Edition: With 67.8% of women around the world in work, 50.7% of the workforce in the United States is women, and statistically proven that women are assigned 10 percent more work than men — that they achieve the same completion rate tells us that they’re being more industrious - it would be assumed that women would be equal to their male peers in the workplace.
However, across Europe the pay gap is 13% in favour of men who occupy the same positions, slightly better in Malta with the pay gap sitting at 10%. 38% of women have experienced harassment in the workplace, women represent less than 5% of CEOs around the world, and a recent global poll found that nearly 70% of women accepted the salary they were offered without negotiating, while only 52% of men did the same.
The SHE Word Women in Business Edition seeks to empower women in business by sharing their common challenges, stories of success, and offering hints and tips to be the best version of yourself in work or business.
