A) EN LA ECONOMIA FORMAL ?Como se repercuten los roles de genero en las oportunidades de empleo? A) EN LA ECONOMIA FORMAL Gender stereotypes have a direct impact on women’s opportunities to participate to economic life, starting from having less access to financial resources in family structures, to their possibility to effectively participate to the world of work in conditions of equality. In fact, women willing to work have to face discriminatory phenomena such as sexual division of work, employment segregation and direct/ indirect discrimination, gender pay gap, difficulties in upward mobility, problems of conciliation between professional and family life. Even in the new green economy scenario, the lack of gender equality is decreasing the access of women to green positions in the primary, secondary and tertiary sectors. As Sustainlabour points out, “although women are the foundation of sustainable households, women agricultural workers in poor countries are a marginalized group. Most green jobs are expected to be in the secondary sectors of construction, manufacturing and energy production, where women are significantly underrepresented. Women may fare better in the tertiary sector where most are now employed. However, men dominate the better paid jobs in engineering, financial and business services, where the bulk of green service positions are likely to be created”. ___ See ILO, “Equality at work: tackling the challenges”, Global Report of the Director General of the ILO to the 2007 International Labour Conference, p. 16-23.
