Women, Digital Transformation and the Evolution of Work

Women, Digital Transformation and the Evolution of Work

The COVID-19 pandemic had a severe effect on women workers. The way people work has fundamentally changed, especially following the COVID-19 pandemic. Artificial Intelligence (AI), digitalisation and Machine Learning (ML) are eliminating several jobs involving routine tasks through automation. However, research by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has revealed that automation will create more challenges for women and they somehow need to shatter the glass ceiling. As per a report by McKinsey & Company, 40 million to 160 million women across the world may need to change their occupations by 2030, often into higher-skilled roles due to automation. To counter this disruption, women as well as men need to be skilled, tech-savvy and mobile to move forward in the world of work. While job loss is a big concern, if women undertake these transitions, they could be on the path to better-paid work and more productive work. But, if they fail to keep up, they could face a growing salary gap or be left further behind considering that gender equality in work is already low worldwide.
