"Madam President, I voted in favour of this initiative because when we talk about precarious work, we are talking once again about the inequality and discrimination that women suffer in Europe.
The economic crisis has increased this inequality because it has impacted the lower paid jobs done mainly by women, involving domestic and care work, which, according to research, represent 31.5% of jobs in businesses, including part-time jobs. The difference in salaries also has an equal impact in Europe, and lack of security is also affecting jobs done by women who have higher-level training.
The lack of joint responsibility between men and women in the home is one of the reasons for that lack of security and that discrimination. We need to work to ensure that we have high quality services to care for children and the elderly and that women can access the labour market under better conditions. I should add that immigrant women are doing the work done by European women so that we can access the labour market.
In short, we need to continue to work for real equality."@en1
