ILO Report Shows Slow Growth of Women in Indian Managerial Roles and Leadership
The ILO report highlights that women's representation in managerial roles globally rose from 24.5% in 2000 to 30.5% in 2025, with Asia-Pacific seeing slower progress. India lags with women holding just over 12% of managerial positions. While top leadership roles for women have increased, gender balance has declined in junior and middle management. Enterprises led by women tend to have better gender balance. Some Indian companies, like Havas India, have improved women's representation through targeted initiatives, including flexible maternity programs.
