Women’s social and economic opportunity
Ontario is helping women across the province thrive everywhere – at home, at work, and in their communities.
Ontario is removing barriers so more women can excel as entrepreneurs, in business, leadership roles, skilled trades and in sectors where the need is greatest.
The contribution of women is critical to our province at every level – whether serving as high-profile executives, running their own businesses, working in the skilled trades, or supporting vital sectors such as nursing, early childhood education, or personal support work.
Ontario is increasing women’s participation in the workforce by:
- making workplaces safer for women
- supporting affordable childcare options
- offering targeted employment, skills development, and training opportunities
- providing programs that help all women overcome barriers and achieve financial independence – including Indigenous and racialized women, new Canadians, and people with disabilities.
