Women’s Many Part-Time Jobs, Few Managerial Positions, and Short Tenure Are the Same Rooted Problems
- The same problem underlies the fact that women are more likely to be part-time/ non-regular workers, as well as the lower percentage of management positions and shorter length of service.
- Setting targets and implementing measures for % of female managerial positions is important, since the higher ratio will narrow the gender wage gap, but this alone is not sufficient.
- It’s necessary to ensure that women have the same position in workplace even if they leave the workforce, and to change social systems and people’s mindset to support child care.
