Employers need to step up and support women where they are, from focusing on their well-being to offering backup care options.It's not easy for women to juggle work and family under the best of circumstances. As the pandemic enters its ninth month of devastation, it threatens to reverse a generation of gains for women in the workforce. A Septemberfrom McKinsey found that one in four women are considering downshifting their careers or leaving the workforce entirely.

As deputy chief human resource officer at Northwell Health, I'm aware of the tough decisions our employees are facing right now. About 72% of our workforce is female, and I've seen firsthand how women are now grappling with caregiving responsibilities. This was an issue before COVID-19. Women's careers have traditionally taken a back seat to their partners' once they have kids.

Even after the pandemic has resolved, long-term damage to women's careers is likely to remain. If a woman leaves the workforce for any reason, they're more likely to stay out of the workforce longer. It takes time to find a new job and is even more challenging to find a comparable one.
