In fact, according to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.iii.org\/fact-statistic\/facts-statistics-careers-and-employment\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"Insurance Information Institute\">Insurance Information Institute<\/a>, women comprised 58.9% of the insurance industry in 2021. In fact, women have comprised about 60% of the insurance workforce every year for the last decade. The same applies to independent agencies: women also make up nearly 60% of insurance agency employees, according to data gathered by Liberty Mutual. Compare this to only 47% of the U.S. workforce being female!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps the reason so many women thrive working in insurance is its flexibility. 80% of women in insurance said their job allows them to balance their personal life and work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Learn more about women working in insurance <a href=\"https:\/\/www.agentforthefuture.com\/womenininsurance\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" title=\"here\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here at Smoller Insurance, we are especially proud of the women on our team!
