Introduction

Sex or gender discrimination in employment involves treating someone unfavorably because of the person’s sex, whether they are applying for a job or are a current employee. Although women have made clear they have the ability to perform with the same skill and success in every endeavor engaged in by men, the issue of sex discrimination still holds many back. Sex discrimination, although predominantly an issue for women, can sometimes be directed towards men as well. (Midwest New Media)

Problem

women are facing a great deal of different kind of gender inequality problem in the workplace, people always take it for granted that men are better than women, and men are able to do more work than the women. Some of the company never absorb young women as their employee because of they afraid that young women will have their baby in the future, and they have to pay the women salary when they are taking the maternity leave. Besides, the company also have to fix the problem of the lost on the occupation vacancy.
