Men were placed in the order of manufacturing (23.4%), wholesale and retail (13.7%), accommodation and restaurant (11.8%) and construction (8.0%). It was found that the proportion of men and women working in the face-to-face service industry, which is the most vulnerable to the employment crisis caused by Corona 19, was high. Deputy Minister of Gender and Family Equality Kim Gyeong-seon said: “As the desire to participate in the labor market continues to increase due to higher education of older women, etc., political support must expand to respond .
