Abstract | New May jobs data show that despite greater jobs gains, women's recovery continues to lag behind that of men. Women's jobs on payroll are still 4.2 million below pre-COVID-19 levels, compared with 3.5 million fewer jobs on payroll for men. Further, high jobs deficits in schools and child care centers point to difficulties for employed mothers and mothers wanting to return to work. Findings in this Quick Figure show: (1) slow pace of child care recovery and school reopenings; (2) unemployment continues at much higher rates for black and Hispanic/Latina women; and (3) added to 1.6 million long-term unemployed women are 1.8 million women who left the workforce. It concludes that public investments are needed to build back a better economy for women. The recovery effort must be designed to support the many women returning to paid employment by investing in job retraining initiatives and other social supports that help women access good jobs with family-sustaining wages.
