This celebration marks a call for action for economic equality while also celebrating women\u2019s achievements, recognizing all of the passionate, and driven women that inspire us on the daily. At our current pace, the World Economic Forum estimates another\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www3.weforum.org\/docs\/WEF_GGGR_2018.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">202 years<\/a>\u00a0before we reach gender parity. We have seen many breakthroughs since the first Women\u2019s Day in the early 1900\u2019s: more women in leadership positions, women entrepreneurship is skyrocketing, new policies have been put in place, a higher rate of advanced education is being attained, and the list goes on! However, amongst all of the progress and positivity, the facts still remain:<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>1.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theatlantic.com\/sexes\/archive\/2013\/04\/why-43-of-women-with-children-leave-their-jobs-and-how-to-get-them-back\/275134\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">43%<\/a>\u00a0of women leave the workforce because of obsolete, analogic work models<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>2. Only\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/fortune.com\/2018\/05\/21\/women-fortune-500-2018\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">5%\u00a0<\/a>of CEOs in Fortune 500 companies are women<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>3. Less than\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/fortune.com\/2018\/01\/31\/female-founders-venture-capital-2017\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">2%\u00a0<\/a>of risk capital goes to women-led startups<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>4. Women on average are paid<a href=\"https:\/\/www.payscale.com\/data\/gender-pay-gap\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">\u00a022%\u00a0<\/a>less than men<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Women represent half the universe, and yet, their strength and perseverance are still up for debate. How is it that our entire planet is on track to be connected by the internet by 2030, but it still leaves women fighting to balance their personal and professional life? Or having to go above and beyond to prove their worth to be CEO, to receive funding, to be treated fairly in the workplace?\u00a0<strong>It\u2019s 2019, women mean business 365 days a year, not just on Women\u2019s Day.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>So, how can we amplify this message and have real impact turning words into actions?<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The speed of technological disruption is at an all-time high. News flash! A desk and\/or office no longer defines a workspace and companies now have the opportunity to build more diverse teams accessing untapped female talent from all across the globe. Location and where you work is now irrelevant. If there is access to the internet and the ability to work from a computer, companies can empower women to work remotely providing flexible workplace arrangements, online collaboration tools, and non-traditional working hours, all in support to bridge the talent gap. This is the future of work, and it\u2019s happening now.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>At\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/wheresheworks.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SheWorks!<\/a>\u00a0we are extremely proud to support amazing women entering the workforce on their own terms. We offer flexible working arrangements, connecting them with leading employers with the utmost transparency. No walls, no limits!<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>We\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/wheresheworks.com\/register\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">invite you<\/a>, or the talented women you know, to join the women-powered work revolution and become part of our remote workforce. We want you to thrive in the digital working world by creating a space where professional growth can be attained at your own pace, and you feel valued by the companies you are working with.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>We also invite employees to reap the benefits of gender diversity and hire talented women from the SheWorks! platform. SheWorks! makes the hiring process easy and seamless, allowing to engage, collaborate, manage, rate, and pay the best-suited women, all in a single platform.
