A recent study by the National Women’s Law Center found that all of the 140,000 jobs lost in December belonged to women. Since February 2020, women have accounted for the majority of the pandemic-related job losses (over 5.4 million net jobs), with approximately 1 in 16 women ages 20 and over (6.3%) facing unemployment by December. FlexJobs developed a list of the 28 of the best remote-friendly companies for women. The companies on the list are most liked by employees for supporting women in the workplace and creating positive work environments. According to Carol Cochran, Vice President of People & Culture at FlexJobs, "Remote work environments open women up to more opportunity because they allow us to manage our lives more effectively. Whether you're starting, stepping back, or advancing your career, the freedom and independence you get in a remote work environment can make it that much easier. She goes on to say, “It's important for businesses to address their company culture. The companies on this list support and empower women, not only because they offer remote work options, but also because the company cultures they've created support the many things women try to juggle. Work flexibility gives women a chance to shine, because the environment can be set up in a way that works best for them."
