Women's inequality in the labor market in Croatia

As society has evolved throughout history, so has the position of women in society. There are more and more successful women in the business world in high managerial positions. Despite possessing some anteriority in management and leadership, women in high positions in the administration are found in a much smaller number than men. Women encounter various obstacles during their business careers. Certainly, men are the ones who encounter obstacles too, but these constraints are much more pronounced in the employment of women. Awareness of gender equality is growing, but the situation is still much sanguine in theory than in practice. The subject of research in this paper relates to the analysis of women's inequality in the labor market during employment and during career. This paper will present an analysis of research conducted through surveys, which interviewed women’ experiences during employment and later in their careers.
