The EOC said there were 33,000 "positions of power" across the public and private sectors. Women were 6,000 short of filling half those roles, it said. "Today's troubling findings show just how slow the pace of change has been," said EOC Chair Jenny Watson.
They seem to surgest that Buisness should offer more flexibility in the workplace so women can become senior management. What does this mean? Being aloud to run out on important meetings to the school run? Being able to escape required overtime to prepair dinner for the kids or put them to bed? Opt out of required travel if its inconvient with there famaily life? Take more time off to look after sick kids regardless of the work load?
For me it’s simple. If they want the responsibility and money that goes with the position they also have to except the realities that go with it.
What do you think?
