Which gender issue can workplace crèche facility reduce?

Correct answer: Care burden on women

Direct answer: A, care burden on women. A workplace crèche provides supervised childcare near or at the workplace. This can make it easier for a parent to continue working, return after childbirth or manage working hours without carrying all childcare responsibility alone. In many families and societies, unpaid care is placed disproportionately on women, so childcare support can reduce that unequal burden. Option A is correct because it directly describes the gender-related problem a crèche can address. Option B is wrong because a crèche does not by itself establish equal pay; wages require a separate policy. Option C is wrong because workplace colour has no connection with childcare or gender equality. Option D is wrong because an age-proof document is an administrative matter, not a care-support issue. A crèche does not solve every workplace inequality, but it removes one practical barrier to women’s participation. Memory cue: crèche means childcare support, and childcare support helps balance care and paid work.
