Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: With the rapid development of the digital economy, women are playing an increasingly significant role in the labor market, particularly in driving employment model transformation and fostering entrepreneurial innovation. While the digital economy offers women more flexible employment opportunities and platforms for self-employment, it also presents multiple challenges, including the gender digital divide, skill shortages, heavy family responsibilities, and the lack of rights protection in emerging forms of employment. To promote fuller and higher-quality employment for women, this paper begins by examining the concept of high-quality and full employment, and then explores the current opportunities and challenges women face through data analysis and policy evaluation. Based on the findings, it proposes comprehensive strategies aimed at eliminating gender bias, improving the employment environment, strengthening digital skills training for women, enhancing social security systems for flexible employment, and fostering a more equitable and inclusive digital economy.
