According to the latest statistics from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the National Women's Law Center, the U.S. labor market has added more than 3.7 million new jobs since February 2020, with men taking a disproportionate share. 1/5 of unemployed women have been unemployed for six months or more. The situation of blacks, Hispanics and disabled women is even worse. Inadequate childcare and support systems for employment caregivers have caused many women to switch from full-time to part-time jobs, a rising trend that has not been reversed since the COVID-19 epidemic. The need for skills upgrading and retraining has never been more urgent.
