The International Labour Organization’s 2026 report found that women’s labour-force participation stands at just 48.6% globally, compared with 72.7% for men. In Arab countries, the figure falls to 19.2%, versus 73.4% for men—even though women are more likely to enrol in higher education. Women earn 78 cents for every dollar earned by men, or about 22% less. Their total labour income amounts to just 52 cents for every dollar earned by men worldwide, and 14 cents in Arab countries. Women also hold only 30.5% of managerial positions. The report attributed the persistent gap to bias, social norms, institutional barriers and care responsibilities. It stressed that women’s lack of equal opportunities in hiring, promotion and pay is not due to a lack of qualifications.
