It enables companies to easily hire vetted professional women from anywhere in the globe and reduces gender inequality in earning power. SheWorks! will reduce unemployment and empower women to grow professionally.

The market needs innovative solutions to transform the world of work – that’s what we’ve created with SheWorks!” said Silvina Moschini, the founder and CEO of She Works. “SheWorks! connects talented professional women with flexible jobs that fit their lives while helping companies expand their diversity pipeline and manage remote teams efficiently”.

There is an undeniable butterfly effect that is born when women work: children and families are directly benefited, economies grow faster and countries prosper”.
