Do you think gender equality will dominate in the future?
GENDER EQUALITY – Here is an essay on the future of gender equality in the workplaces in the country.
Undeniably, several workplaces hire more male employees than female ones. One of the most common reasons of employers is that men have chances of staying longer in a company than women for there are stages in the latter’s life that might cause huge changes.
Let us take for example when a woman gets pregnant. Female employees have to take a maternity leave when they are pregnant thus someone has to take over their tasks. Truths be told that the reliever of the task may not be so used to it and it can affect the company as a whole.
Women may not be only absent from work during pregnancy and giving birth as a few months after giving birth, the mother will be dedicating her time in taking care of the baby.
Another common reason is that there are tasks wherein men are more suitable that women. When you hire a male employee, he may not only be good for office work. That employee can also help carrying heavy boxes when deliveries arrive and there is a shortage of the workforce.
However, these situations are unfair. How do you see the future of the call for gender equality in the workplace? There are things that men can do and women can’t but there are also those that women can do and men can’t.
For a more acceptable stand, both men and women can do similar things but performances would vary. There are those that are really suitable for men while there are also those that can be done better with a female employee. Thus, other qualifications must be on the front line when hiring and not the gender of the person.
Each of us is created unique regardless of the similarities in gender. We must look beyond what the outer appearance of a person conveys.
