Gender factor in the labor sphere

Abstract

Gender relations have long been based on the economic, social and political superiority of men. The reason for this is mainly the biological-functional differences between men and women. Until the beginning of the 21st century, the main theory of gender (social-sexual) stratification was that the main reason lies in human biology, and in the functional roles that members of society play. Given the underdevelopment of science, as well as social research that could shed light on this issue, this is not surprising. But at the moment we have a lot of studies on this subject, but the focus of these studies is mainly aimed at identifying discrimination against the female part of the population. One of the most important factors for the successful prosperity and development of any country is a strong, self-sufficient, well-thought-out economy. Like a “motor” for a machine, the economy is also the main and key organ of the country, and like this “motor”, it is a rather complex mechanism consisting of many screws and gears, which, while moving synchronously in a certain amplitude, perform a certain important function. There are many different economic systems with different directions of development, values, worldview, but invariably the main resource for the economy is workers and workers. Consequently, in order to maintain the proper level of progress and development of the economy, it is necessary to constantly maintain the quantity and quality of the country’s labor resources, this mainly depends on the economic system, but in our case, the gender factor will be considered.
