Women comprise the majority of internal workforces in U.S. staffing firms, but remain underrepresented at the executive, c-suite, and board levels. This is according to data from the third gender equity benchmark survey led by the Women Business Collaborative with support from ASA, the National Association of Personnel Services, Staffing Industry Analysts, and TechServe Alliance.

“Women need access to more opportunities to thrive in staffing. Conversations like the upcoming webinar are vital to keeping the topic of developing future women leaders in staffing front and center in our industry,” said Joanie Bily, chair of ASA. “I’m proud to serve as chair of the American Staffing Association, an organization whose board has achieved gender parity. ASA will continue to help women staffing leaders receive the support they need to reach their full career potential.”

ASA is hosting industry thought leaders in the ASA webinar “A Panel Discussion on Gender Equity in the Staffing Industry—A Review of the 2023 Women Business Collaborative’s Staffing Industry Benchmark Survey,” Thursday, Dec. 14, 2–3 p.m. Eastern time.
