This report examines the critical role of family-friendly policies and workplace childcare in Pakistan, emphasizing their impact on economic growth, gender equality, and workforce retention. It identifies significant gaps in existing policy frameworks and childcare infrastructure that hinder the full participation of working parents- particularly women-in the labor market. Drawing upon both quantitative data and qualitative insights, the analysis reveals that cultural norms and a lack of structured childcare services create substantial challenges for parents who need to balance both their professional and caregiving responsibilities.
