According to a study on gender parity indicators worldwide, progress towards gender parity in work life has been marginal over the past years. The indicators have been aggregated into a Gender Parity Score, ranging from zero (no gender equality) to one (full gender equality). In both 2014 and 2019, the labor-force participation rate remained at 0.64. The most progress was made for females in professional and technical jobs where the ratio scored 0.73 in 2019.
