Hyderabad, March 11 –: TRS MLC Kalvakuntla Kavitha advised employers to hire more women keeping in mind that the pandemic affected them more and it led to many women not coming back to the workspace.
Speaking as a chief guest at the inauguration of the Second Edition of Business Women Expo 2022, BWE-2022 hosted jointly by Hitex and Confederation of Women Enterprises (COWE) India and TiE Hyderabad, Kavitha said that out of 47% of women who lost jobs, not many are likely to come back. ” The employability of women is less than 10% and the pandemic has directly affected women’s employment,” she added.
