Gender gaps in subjective wellbeing
'In all countries of the world, especially in high-income countries, women declare a higher level of life satisfaction than men when they experience similar conditions (for example, pay and working conditions), but score lower on measures that capture short-term positive and negative emotions, and suffer from higher levels of depression. It is true that the advantage of women in terms of happiness and life satisfaction is not uniform along the life cycle: women are less happy than men the age of 18, happier than men afterwards and until their fifties, and less again thereafter. .The positive gap in life satisfaction is not explained by women’s situation on the labour market, their income, education, personality traits or other personal features or living conditions. On the contrary, women would have obvious reasons to be less satisfied with their life and their professional situation than men: they perform longer hours of unpaid work, receive lower wages and are still predominantly clustered into less prestigious occupations. Authors propose two main explanations for this contrasted picture. The first one is that men and women make different use of their time, especially when they live together. The second one is that they have different expectations.'- Creator

Factsheet
Op 5 november 2018 is het in Nederland Equal Pay Day en wordt er aandacht gevraagd voor de loonkloof: het gemiddelde beloningsverschil tussen mannen en vrouwen. In Nederland is die 15,5% (Eurostat). Dit percentage houdt in dat vanaf 5 november vrouwen tot het einde van het jaar als het ware gratis werken. De loonkloof snijdt een aantal emancipatievraagstukken aan, zoals economische zelfstandigheid, opleidingsniveau, beroepssegregatie, doorstroming naar hoge functies en beloningsdiscriminatie. Voor de emancipatie van vrouwen is het noodzakelijk om de loonkloof te dichten. In deze factsheet worden de belangrijkste begrippen verklaard en de recente cijfers op een rij gezet.- Creator

Rapport Monitoring Talent naar de Top 2009
Rapport Monitoring Talent naar de Top 2009
Eerste rapportage van de Commissie Monitoring Talent naar de Top aan de Ministeries van Economische Zaken en Onderwijs, Cultuur & Wetenschappen over de algemene voortgang op het gebied van diversiteit van alle ondertekenaars van het Charter Talent naar de Top. Het Charter Talent naar de Top (zie www.talentnaardetop.nl) beoogt daadwerkelijke en structurele verbeteringen voor meer vrouwen aan de (sub)top. Het jaarlijks meten van de door de organisaties aangeleverde diversiteitscijfers, het in positieve zin onderscheiden van organisaties die daadwerkelijk voortgang boeken, en het transparant rapporteren over de voortgang leveren volgens ons een duidelijke bijdrage aan deze doelstelling. Naast het totale aandeel vrouwen in de organisatie is de verhouding tussen het aandeel vrouwen in de top en subtop een meetpunt voor de Commissie. -

European reconciliation package
European reconciliation package
'In this final policy package a wide range of experts from civil society, policy, research and employers develop a much deeper understanding for the challenges in reconciling work and family life and to showcase different practices, which were used as inspiration for drawing up concrete policy recommendations. In the last few years, there has been a growing demand for policies that support the achievement of the targets on gender equality, closing the gender and pension pay gap, women’s participation in decision making, the Barcelona targets for early childhood education and care, and a better reconciliation between work and family life. In the context of the EU 2020 Strategy, whilst not framed as a headline target, reconciliation measures have nevertheless been recognised at EU level as important means of achieving major policy objectives.' -

The global gender gap report 2016
The global gender gap report 2016
'The Global Gender Gap Index presented in this Report seeks to measure one important aspect of gender equality—the relative gaps between women and men across four key areas: health, education, economy and politics. The Index was developed in part to address the need for a consistent and comprehensive measure for gender equality that can track a country’s progress over time. More than a decade of data has revealed that progress is still too slow for realizing the full potential of one half of humanity within our lifetimes. .The Index does not seek to set priorities for countries but rather to provide a comprehensive set of data and a clear method for tracking gaps on critical indicators so that countries may set priorities within their own economic, political and cultural contexts. The Index also points to potential role models by revealing those countries that—within their region or income group—are leaders in distributing resources more equitably between women and men, regardless of the overall level of available resources.' -
The global gender gap report 2013
The global gender gap report 2013
'There are three basic concepts underlying the Global Gender Gap Index. First, it focuses on measuring gaps rather than levels. Second, it captures gaps in outcome variables rather than gaps in means or input variables. Third, it ranks countries according to gender equality rather than women’s empowerment.The Index is designed to measure gender-based gaps in access to resources and opportunities in individual countries rather than the actual levels of the available resources and opportunities in those countries.'
