Mexico has dropped its rating in the World Bank (WB) index that measures equality between men and women.
According to the Women in Business and the Law 2020 report , our country obtained a score of 83.8 while in the 2019 edition it was 86.25 thanks to the progress it had made at that time by prohibiting the dismissal of pregnant employees.
Mexico downgrades in equality index: BM
According to the report, gender equality in Mexico is not yet what is expected, as is the case in countries such as Belgium, Sweden, Canada, Denmark, France, Iceland and Luxembourg, which have a rating close to 90 out of 100.
The indicator is responsible for analyzing the Chile Mobile Number List moments in a woman's working life, from her first job to her retirement, as well as the legal protections associated with each of these stages.
According to the latest World Bank study, women's economic participation has improved, considering 40 economies that implemented 62 reforms. This is expected to help women who make up half of the world's population.
However, she warned that the results are uneven, since in many countries women have only a fraction of the legal rights of men.
When women are able to move more freely, work outside the home, and manage assets, they are more likely to join the workforce and help strengthen the economy.

Furthermore, a recent World Bank working paper titled Gendered Laws used data to compare economies where women have the same legal rights as men with others where the gap is large.
The objective of this research was to better understand how gender-based discrimination in laws affects women's economic opportunities.
The 2020 edition of Women, Business and the Law shows that in the last two years, 40 economies enacted 62 legal reforms in total, but the panorama varies widely from one region to another: scores range from 49.6 in the East Middle and North Africa at 94.6 in high-income countries that belong to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), on a scale of 0 to 100.
Globally, women still have only three-quarters of the rights of men in measured spheres.
100 years to achieve gender equality in the world
According to the 2019 SDG Gender Index , Equal Measures 2030—a coalition of organizations including the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and Plan International—achieving gender equality worldwide by 2030 will not be possible. .
The country that is closest to achieving gender equality is Denmark, with an indicator of 89.3 out of 100. However, with data from 129 countries—covering 95% of the world's female population—the authors conclude that 40% of girls and women (1.4 billion) live in countries that fail in gender equality—those that obtain less than 59 points out of 100.
The World Economic Forum's (WEF) annual Global Gender Gap Report ranked Iceland as the most gender equal country for the 11th consecutive year, followed by its Nordic neighbors Norway, Finland and Sweden. Syria, Pakistan, Iraq and Yemen scored the lowest.
