Men and women in the American workplace are unequal at every level. The U.S. ranks 59th in women’s labor force participation overall, and only 6.6% of our Fortune 500 companies have a woman CEO. Moreover, the progress we are making is slow: in the last 13 years, 16 countries, including Namibia, Cameroon, and Botswana, have surpassed the U.S. in women’s labor force participation.

Out of the 149 countries WEF measures, the U.S. ranks 98th in representation of women in our political institutions—behind Pakistan, Iraq, and the United Arab Emirates. Women make up less than 25% of Congress. And the U.S., unlike 59 other countries, has yet to elect a woman head of state.

The U.S. is close to gender parity in health, but we’ve faced worrying setbacks in the past decade. Life expectancy in the U.S. has declined slightly for everybody since 2006, but the decline for women is four times what it is for men. The U.S. has the worst maternal mortality rate of any country in the developed world. Three times as many women die in childbirth in the U.S. as in the U.K., five times as many as in Australia, and seven times as many as in Finland.

The U.S. has achieved gender parity across all levels of the education system. Women now earn more than two-thirds of the master’s degrees and the majority of doctoral degrees. However, those gains in education have yet to pay off: Women are underrepresented in careers related to nine of the 10 highest-paying undergraduate majors (e.g., statistics, computer science). And even armed with the same college major, men typically enter into higher-paying occupations.
