collaborative research & innovation
Partners: The Innovation Foundation powered by Adecco
This joint research series explores the challenges faced by women returning to work after the pandemic and asks whether flexibility at work is a universal solution for both employers and workers. Following on a first paper published in January 2022, “Women Returning to Work in a Post-Pandemic World: Busting the Myths of Flexibility and Choice”, this second paper digs deeper into the benefits and challenges of flexibility for medium-skilled women in a diverse set of labour markets: India, Japan, South Africa, Sweden, and the UK, focus on three industries that have been at the front-line during the pandemic: healthcare, hospitality and logistics.
