Gender Gap



There was a time when the gap between the genders was very big. Then came the time when everybody said that they were putting there the best of their efforts to remove this gap. Most of them got little success.

Who says that there is no Gender Gap in India. According to a recent survey done by World Economic Forum (WEF), there is a big corporate gender gap in the employment of woman in th entry level to the top management of the companies. This survey was based on the 60 of the top best 100 employers of India. Here are some of the results.

* Women employees held only 10 percent of the senior management positions in two-thirds of the surveyed companies.

* None of the companies had women chief executive officers (CEOs) and almost 40 percent of the respondents had only 10 percent women work force.

* The average annual income of a woman is $1,185, which is less than one-third of a man's $3,698, employed in Indian companies.


Do you think we are not having any Gender Gap in our country? Remember, if you cannot respect the work done by others, stop the operations of your company. The most preferable way to remove this type of gap will be to educate the men about the women empowerment.

Remember, a finished road is much better for a vehicle.
