The demographics of a work place at various levels of management reflects both, the organization philosophy and organization culture. Mere appointing equal number of people from either gender does not make the work place gender neutral; it’s the practices that they bestow on them that define the organization’s stand on gender equality at work places. The review paper determines various practices that are gender influenced and also are suggested policies that can be used to counter them.

Abstract


The demographics of a work place at various levels of management reflects both, the organization philosophy and organization culture. Mere appointing equal number of people from either gender does not make the work place gender neutral; it’s the practices that they bestow on them that define the organization’s stand on gender equality at work places. The review paper determines various practices that are gender influenced and also are suggested policies that can be used to counter them.
