Enhancing women’s participation in the workforce can significantly boost GDP. Despite progress in sectors like IT or banking, many women remain in low-paid, informal work. Government efforts like maternity benefit extensions, SHG movements, and priority lending to female entrepreneurs aim to close gender gaps. However, cultural barriers, lack of childcare support, and skill mismatches persist. For exam prep, highlight how bridging the gender digital divide, ensuring credit accessibility, and strengthening legal protections against workplace harassment can create more equitable and productive economic outcomes for women.
