If there is a pension scheme for women workers but contribution is very high what effect will it have on coverage?

Correct answer: Low income women may be excluded

The direct answer is A: low-income women may be excluded from the pension scheme. Pension coverage depends not only on whether a scheme exists but also on affordability and ease of access. Step by step, a worker must pay the contribution; if the required amount is too high compared with her income, she may delay joining, stop paying or be unable to enrol. As a result, the scheme may cover fewer women, especially those in low-paid or insecure work. Option A is correct because it describes this likely access problem. Option B is wrong because high contributions do not always increase coverage. Option C is wrong because a costly scheme is not fully accessible. Option D is wrong because contributions do not end control over income. Exam cue: social security must be affordable, not merely available on paper.
