Abstract: For years, men have dominated occupations in society due to presumed gender roles. Recently, due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, women have had to step into different lanes and transition from traditional duties into roles that center on the aftermath of the pandemic. An increase in stay-at-home duties allocated for a lot of women to shift from their normal routines towards household needs. There was also an influx in domestic violence against women and the need for reinforcing preventive measures as it came to safety concerns for women. This qualitative study analyzes research that illustrates gender trends that occurred as a direct result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Further research is needed to illustrate how to overcome the ongoing economic risks and hardships that women still face.
