Various policies by IRCC to scale up the newcomer women
As per the statistics Canada, women are having an increased share among the immigrants welcomed through economic class pathways. Hence women are just as keen as their male counterparts and are well-fitting in jobs with their skills and scaling up the socio-economic ladder.
Development in the female percentage is also due to the mirroring of their partners in human capital factors. Even the Canadian labor market has given a fair shot for newcomer women in high levels of human capital factors. The Maple leaf country strongly believes that economic immigration among women plays a crucial role in promoting social integration and retention.
Canada’s federal and provincial governments are planning various initiatives to support newcomer women by integrating a separate portal for them in the job market. For instance, IRCC has been continuously providing financial support for many pilot programs that support newcomer women since 2018.

| IRCC goals for newcomer women..
IRCC notes one of the goals of the programs is to “help racialized newcomer women find good, well-paying jobs that set them up for success in this country, by addressing the barriers they may face–gender- and race-based discrimination, precarious or low-income employment, lack of affordable child care and weak social supports.” |
