Abstract
This research paper aims to analyze the impact of social inequality by discussing income inequality in social sciences and the challenges that women face in employment. Through questionnaire survey and data analysis, this paper comprehensively discusses the multi-dimensional impact of inequality in women’s employment and proposes feasible measures to reduce employment inequality from multiple perspectives. The impact of the current situation of women’s employment in society from two key dimensions of economy and sociology was analyzed. Insights and directions for the future government and society were provided to formulate relevant policies.
