The unemployment rate in Britain among black women was almost twice that of white women and only slightly lower among Asian women

BBC News:

The study found black and Asian women were also more likely to be working in less secure forms of employment than white women, with almost 10% of black women and more than 8% of Asian women on fixed-term contracts or in temporary jobs compared with just under 6% of white women.

But ethnic minority women earned slightly more on average than their white counterparts and black and Asian women were less likely to do unskilled jobs, the study showed.
