Why is Technology expected to cut more jobs for women than men?

Will the rapid automation boom hit the job market specifically targeting female workers? Why are experts predicting a deeper job loss impact on women? Let's solve this puzzle with an insightful view!

Jobs traditionally performed by females such as administrative roles, customer service, and retails positions are more susceptible to automation. These roles involve routine tasks that artificial intelligence and robots can perform efficiently. Additionally, women are underrepresented in STEM fields, which are less likely to be automated and often drive technological innovation. This imbalance leaves many women vulnerable to job displacement without equivalent opportunities for retraining or advancement in tech-dominated sectors.

In order to address this disparity, policies and initiatives must focus on inclusive education, reskilling programs and fostering balanced representation of females as well as males in every field.
