company, have the power & influence to
make this a thing of the past.

opportunity & pay for about the same job.

Women must deliver far more than males in order to be
regarded seriously. This is a reality that occurs frequently
without our knowledge. Company need to focus more on
the achievement of the goal rather than the identification of
the person who accomplishes it. This isn't to say we don't
give credit to the person who gets the job done. But, in the
end, what important is that the produced results benefit the
entire firm, thus we must award the performers fairly
irrespective of gender. Company can also build the
enabling atmosphere in order to achieve gender equality in
the workplace; we must create a welcoming environment
for our employees.
