With the development of economy and the progress of social civilization, women gradually abandon the traditional concept of “men dominate the outside, women dominate the inside”, and increase their social participation through employment in society. At the same time, the government In order to encourage female employment, the department has also introduced a series of female employment protection policies. By consulting the data from the 2016 and 2018 survey reports on the status of women’s occupations in China and the data from the China Population and Employment Statistics Yearbook, this article uses descriptive statistical analysis methods to conclude that the introduction and continuous improvement of these women’s employment protection policies have been made to a certain extent. The above changes the explicit discrimination that companies and other employers directly reject women’s employment based on gender. However, companies and other employers still have hidden discrimination against women’s employment, which is manifested in unequal employment opportunities, gender differentiation in the employment field, and occupations.

Regarding the hidden discrimination that these women have in employment, we use relevant data to analyze the reasons behind it from the social, corporate, and female personal perspectives.
