Half of women working in law say the demands of their job are unsustainable for their long-term health, according to new research which canvassed the views of more than 500 female legal professionals.
The finding is among a series of stark conclusions drawn from the new report ‘Pressure Points: Mapping Women’s Wellbeing in Law,’ based on a survey of women in law conducted by the Next 100 Years, a project focused on advancing equality and supporting women across the legal profession.
