Position of Women in the Labour Market Sample Clauses

Position of Women in the Labour Market. The proportion of women in the labour market in the Netherlands increased from 59 per cent in 2006 to 64 per cent in 2011. Between 2006 and 2011 the proportion of men in the labour market remained stable at 80 per cent. The proportion of part-time working women, already the highest in Europe, kept on increasing to 73 per cent in 2011, while the proportion of part-time working men increased to 19 per cent (Mars et al., 2012). The share of women in management positions increased from 24 per cent in 2003 to 29 per cent in 2011 and the share of women in top positions2 increased from 7 per cent in 2007 to 10 per cent in 2009, which is still low from an international comparative perspec- tive (Merens, 2012). Furthermore, the non-profit sector experienced a slight increase in women in management positions. The highest rise was in government, where the share of women in higher and top positions rose from 20 per cent in 2008 to 26 per cent in 2010. In higher education the share of women full professors increased from 9 per cent in 2003 to 12 per cent in 2009, below the target figures the Dutch government has set for them- selves (15 per cent in 2010), which were already below the lisbon targets of 25 per cent (Xxxxxx et al., 2010). To conclude, the proportion of Dutch women participating in the labour market is still increasing slightly, notwithstanding the economic crisis, but as the majority of women work part-time the gross participation of women does not increase substantially. The share of women in management positions is slightly improving, but still fairly low compared with to international standards.
