Survey shows 81% of Haredi women in workforce, parity with non-Haredi Jews

The Israel Democracy Institute's latest report found that 81% of ultra-Orthodox women were employed, up from 71% in 2015 and close to the 83% employment rate for non-Haredi women. The same coverage noted that Haredi men's employment growth had stalled and income gaps with mainstream Israeli society remained wide.
