If women are hired but cannot stay due to harassment risk what intervention is more necessary?

Correct answer: A safe workplace, an effective grievance mechanism, and timely action on complaints along with recruitment

Hiring alone does not ensure women’s continued participation in work. When harassment creates a risk, a safe workplace, an accessible confidential grievance mechanism, and fair timely action are necessary for women to remain in employment. Increasing recruitment targets may improve entry, but it does not solve the safety and retention problem. Exam tip: In gender-equity questions, consider safety, dignity, and retention along with access to jobs.
