본문내용

The terminology of ‘the glass ceiling’ defines a variety of barriers that prevent qualified individuals from advancing higher in their organization (Adair, 1999) and the phrase glass ceiling is used most often in regards to women in the workforce (Bryant, 2004). Although it is true that many women have finally become managers after fifty years in the job market (Driscoll & Goldberg, 1993), few have made it to the very top (Adair, 1999) in recent years.

In this paper, the author would like to examine the gender issues in employment and management and analyze equal opportunities policies and strategies for managing diversity and work life balance. First of all, the author would like to examine the issues relating to women at work in terms of vertical and horizontal gender segregation, and investigate theory to understand why and how subordination of women exists in the workplace. Secondly, how individual women have progressed in organizations and how they have broken through the gloss ceiling will be looked. At this stage, some successful women managers and entrepreneurs will be introduced. Finally, the policies and strategies that governments and employers can adopt to address workplace discrimination including equal opportunities policies, diversity management and strategies for work life balance will be discussed and analyzed.
