Recent research from MissionSquare Research Institute details the financial challenges facing public service workers, which are particularly acute for women. When comparing the sentiment of younger public service employees by gender, only 23% of women feel very financially secure as compared to 43% of men. Also, the ability to save and invest for retirement among younger public workers varies significantly by gender. For example, 64% of younger women say they cannot afford to save more, significantly higher than men (46%).
