#SheMakesItWork Campaign 2019

In celebration and support of mothers in the workforce or returning to work after having children and their feelings towards having a solid support system at home, Monster.com is excited to announce the launch of #SheMakesItWork campaign. The objective of the campaign is to raise greater awareness on important issues and unique challenges that both men and women face at work, particularly with regards to parental leave and work-life balance.

The campaign is backed by a Monster research, which surveyed over 2000 respondents in Singapore, Malaysia and the Philippines. The study throws light on the challenges working women (including mums) and dads face in the workplace today. This study was conducted for the third consecutive year as part of the #SheMakesItWork campaign.
