Description
Summary:The article focuses on the rising trend of women holding top positions in different sectors of economy. A serious contribution to this trend was made by government that took a strategic decision about reducing the list of jobs and positions with harmful and/or dangerous labour conditions, where the use of women’s labour is restricted. However, apart from state policy, we should point out to the growing activity of women themselves, who do their best to build the career on a level with men. The article shows trends, which testify to the fact that women hold top positions more frequently today and, at the same time it provides factors that can hinder the development of women’s career. Estimating the impact of all these factors can foster more accurate career planning. According to the author, higher quality of career management could raise the degree of job satisfaction, in particular in women’s quarters. Another important argument in favor of the necessity to improve the quality of women’s career is dependence of labour productivity on the degree of female workers’ satisfaction. Realization of work effectiveness is a source of inspiration and motivation. With regard to the rising trend of retaining personnel, cutting turnover and certain deficit on labour market career management becomes a factor of higher company competitiveness, as it can affect both productivity and personnel turnover, which is essential because of the high share of women in the general structure of employable population in the Russian Federation.
