How To Recruit Women For The 21st Century: Toolkit and Annual Report 2018

The Women and Work All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) is a cross-party group that constructively examines the role of women in the workforce, bringing together Members of Parliament and interested stakeholders to consider the role that employers, policy makers, and others can play in delivering gender balance within the economy. Since the APPG was formed we have consistently heard from employers that, whilst they appreciate the benefits derived from a gender balanced workforce, barriers to recruitment which make delivering on this difficult still persist. 

 This report aims to go some way towards bridging the gap between the willingness to commit to a more balanced gender distribution in the workplace and the challenges of achieving this.
