Women Equality in A Workplace

Abstract Thesis

There have been great progressive efforts made in the world to ensure equality in the workplace. Despite these efforts, women continue to face issues such as salary discrepancies, sexual harassment, unequal consideration for needs, unequal opportunities for growth and unfair treatment during pregnancy and motherhood. There is a need to address these issues and create a fair working environment for all employees.

Proposed Solution
