Empowering Women in Hesse's Workforce: Event Week Aims to Close Skills Gap
The week ahead sees a focus on equal representation of women in Hesse's labor market. The event week, organized by employment agencies and job centers, aims to create better conditions for women who wish to work more, often part-time. Around 240,000 skilled workers will be needed nationwide by 2030, and this event week seeks to attract and empower women in the workforce.
The event week, running from Monday to Friday, offers a range of activities for employed and job-seeking women. It aims to help women understand their strengths, rights, and opportunities in the workplace. Both digital and in-person events are scheduled to ensure accessibility for all interested participants.
The website of the Federal Employment Agency, accessible at https://www.arbeitsagentur.de, provides an overview of the free events and contact details. Equality officers at employment agencies and job centers are the key contacts for career planning and returning to work.
The event week underscores the ongoing need for gender equality in the labor market. Social Minister Heike Hofmann has stressed that equality is not yet fully achieved and awareness needs to be raised. By empowering women and encouraging them to take up skilled roles, the event week seeks to address the nationwide shortage of skilled workers projected by 2030.
