In the last five decades, the most reforms happened in the Workplace indicator—322 reforms improved the average from 17.6 to 78.4. These reforms focused on introducing legislation on protections against sexual harassment, as well as preventing discrimination in employment. The reform effort intensified in the mid-1990s. It’s one thing to have made strides in women’s rights technically, in law. It’s another to see them in practice. According to the ‘Equality: It’s about Time’ report by the Fawcett Society, in 2016 women still only accounted for 29% of MPs, and 23% of FTSE 100 board members, and the pay gap was still at 13.9% for full-time work. Society has come a long way. The report by The Fawcett Society highlighted that 83% of the British public support equality of opportunity for women demonstrating how far we have come since the early 20th century when women took their first steps to challenge the male status quo. It is evident that there is still a need for change but society is heading in the right direction.
