Female labor segregation refers to the phenomenon in which women are disproportionately concentrated in certain types of jobs or industries, while men dominate others. This segregation often results in women being paid less, having fewer opportunities for advancement, and facing discrimination and harassment in the workplace. This can be due to factors such as societal expectations about gender roles, discrimination, lack of access to education and training, and unequal employment policies. Efforts to address female labor segregation often involve promoting equal opportunity and treatment in the workplace, challenging gender stereotypes, and advocating for policies that support the advancement of women in all industries. | Female labor segregation refers to the phenomenon in which women are disproportionately concentrated in certain types of jobs or industries, while men dominate others.
