Employers need to do more to provide support to mitigate against violence and domestic abuse during emergencies like the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a new report.
The report, ‘The Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Women, Employment and Health Inequalities’, highlights how existing inequalities facing women worsened and affected their working lives during the Covid-19 pandemic.
It highlights opportunities for employers and government to take action to improve women’s health and wellbeing, including addressing working conditions, unequal loss of income, and support for domestic abuse and coercive control.
