Former Vice President FPCCI and  founder President khairpur chamber of commerce & industry Shabnam Zafar said coronavirus fallout is worse for women than men, therefore the vulnerable women should get special attention of the Prime Minister Imran Khan.

Shabnam said that many women are low-wage and part-time workers facing gender pay gap while those who are running their businesses depend on exhibitions and middlemen as the majority cannot afford to have a shop.

She said that many women are low-wage and part-time workers facing gender pay gap while those who are running their businesses depend on exhibitions and middlemen as the majority cannot afford to have a shop.

She said that financial security space is shrinking for the businesswomen, therefore the government should announce a bailout package for them without further delay.

She said that women are facing income loss, beauty parlours and boutiques have been closed, millions of maids have been laid off, and hundreds of thousands of teachers etc. have been sent on forced leaves.

 Shabnam Zafar noted that the economy needs women, and women need equity and protection, therefore the State Bank of Pakistan should reschedule loan repayments, announce interest-free loans for women entrepreneurs and take all other steps needed to empower them amid the crisis to help them remain afloat

Housewives are facing household budget cuts and increased domestic violence due to problems linked to the lockdown, she added.

She said that most of the items women sell in the market is not seen as a necessity, but more of luxury amid an economic slowdown which has resulted in financial constraints for the businesswomen.
