On this #IWD day, I am excited to launch our new study: "Navigating the path back: Women returners in MENA" which reveals the potential of women re-entering the workforce to boost the GDP by nearly US$385 billion across nine countries. Our key findings include: 📈 Nearly half of working women in the MENA region have taken a career break, with over 68% taking them at experienced levels and above. 📈 82% of women who have returned to work believe that they can progress to top levels of their organisations despite nearly half agreeing that their applications have been rejected due to gaps in their resumes. 📈 Providing flexible working models that enable women to work additional hours could generate close to US$4.3 billion in GDP gains in the nine countries surveyed. @PwC Middle East we are dedicated to fostering an inclusive environment that supports women's return to work, a necessasity for regional prosperity and organisational success.

We recently released the latest set of Equitable Growth Indicators (EGIs), which report demographic and geographic differences in inflation, earnings, employment, wealth and consumer spending at the national level. The newly released EGIs show that the gender employment gap widened during the pandemic, with the national gap reaching 13 percent and the regional gap exceeding 14 percent. After peaking in 2020, both gaps began to decrease steadily, with the regional gap declining faster than the national gap. By October 2023, the national gender employment gap had narrowed to about 10.9 percent, while the regional gap had reduced to 8.7 percent, both below pre-pandemic levels.
