‘Implement measures for inclusive recovery’

THE government and the private sector were urged to put in place measures to help ensure gender inclusive economic recovery.

“Women represent almost 90 percent of workers in some of the hardest hit sectors such as apparel and care. Ensuring their health care, well-being and safety is key to accelerate economic recovery,” said Rosalyn Mesina, WeEmpowerAsia Program manager in the Philippines, in a virtual roundtable on Tuesday.
