Islamabad, March 24, 2022 (PPI-OT):According to a Gallup Pakistan Survey in Pakistan (and similar surveys done by Worldwide Independent Network of Market Research (WIN) across the world), 40% of Pakistanis compared to 45% of global respondents believe that women have fewer jobs and career opportunities than men.
These findings emerge from an international survey conducted across the globe by The Worldwide Independent Network of Market Research (WIN) – a global network conducting market research and opinion polls in every continent. WIN International has published the Annual WIN World Survey (WWS – 2021), exploring the views and beliefs of 33236 individuals, among citizens from 39 countries across the globe. On International Women’s Day, WIN releases the latest results of the survey about gender equality, violence, and sexual harassment, to understand what are, if any, the improvements around the world in terms of equal opportunities and rights. The fieldwork for Pakistan was conducted between 10th October and 11th November 2021 and the sample size was 1000 individuals.
A nationally representative sample of adult men and women from across the four provinces was asked the following question “In your country, do you think women have the same opportunities, more opportunities or less opportunities than men in job opportunities and careers?”. In response to this question in Pakistan, 25% said women have more opportunities, 29% said women have the same opportunities, 40% said women have less opportunities and, 6% didn’t know or gave no response.
