Discrimination against women - All Posts - Ze'ev Ronen - Business Excellence

For the last eight years I have been publishing articles dedicated to International Women’s Day, which falls on March 8th. Why publish an article dedicated to International Women’s Day? Is it an admission that my other articles do not address women on all other days of the year? No, not at all. All my articles address both men and women, but the articles written specially for International Women’s Day examine the unique aspects related to women in business.

Statistics show that 70% of all unemployed people in Israel during the third Coronavirus quarantine were women. The lack of symmetry between men and women in unemployment statistics has gotten worse over the pandemic.

I will now dare to make an unpopular statement, and move some of the responsibility for low salaries onto the shoulders of women themselves. The reason for this is that it takes two to tango. It isn't enough that the systems that are mostly controlled by men will offer less, but you also need someone who is willing to accept this lesser sum and make do.
