Women and work, little welfare and too many stereotypes - 8 March. Almost half of women in our country do not work (51% in 2022, 53% in 2023).

According to Istat, there are 10 million employed women, almost a million more in ten years. But there are 900 thousand unemployed people and as many as eight million inactive people, those who aren't looking for work at all. There is also a large gap that remains between the North and South of the country.
