Stop discrimination against women with pre-employment personal questions. Colao: 'Companies indicate the number and role of women on their websites' (ANSA)


It is necessary to "build mechanisms of anonymous platforms that denounce those who violate Article 27" of the Equal Opportunities Code which provides for the prohibition of asking "questions about the personal life of women at the time of hiring", because "this is the moment in which business decides whether to hire a man or a woman. It is my intention to promote an action that affects this step ".

This was stated by the Minister of Labor Andrea Orlando.

"I have two issues on the table that I believe are incredibly topical compared to the numbers of the pandemic, active work policies and shock absorbers: having a good system helps everyone and mainly women, who are those who are progressively marginalized within the labor market".

It is necessary to identify "specific measures that favor entry and permanence in the labor market" starting from "proximity infrastructures" to relieve them of family and care burdens and overcoming the wage gap between men and women ".

"There is a question that can no longer be avoided concerning the possibility of building standards throughout the country that evaluate the essential levels in terms of the provision of welfare, because we have two Italies and in one the social infrastructures are not there and work for a woman is practically impossible ".

"Having unique standards is a powerful answer to avoiding the impracticability of work for millions of women or the choice" to leave "with the birth of their first child."

In the North and in large urban areas where there are services, he observed "female employment is higher".

"I would like each site of each company of each institution to have a pyramid in the upper right corner" "not using pink" which indicates the percentages of roles covered by women "at all levels".

This was stated by the minister for innovation the technological transition Vittorio Colao in the webinar "Target 62% - female employment as a national relaunch. Women as a cross-cutting priority." It is easy to have 50% of women, maybe all of them below or all top ".
