Women physicians’ experiences in the workplace in Lebanon: a qualitative study
Participants highlighted personal challenges such as work-life balance, and burnout, as well as institutional obstacles like gender discrimination, limited career advancement opportunities, and sexual harassment. By uncovering these barriers this research provides a critical foundation for the development of targeted policies and interventions aimed at fostering a more equitable and supportive environment for women in the medical profession.
