"I voted in favour of the report on female poverty in the EU. In the present period of economic crisis, the austerity measures being applied are also having an adverse impact on women, putting them at a disadvantage on the labour market. In Greece, the risk of poverty at work for women is 10%, which is much higher than for men, while in Europe, female poverty is 36%, compared with 11% for men. The basic objective is to eliminate the pay gap between the two sexes and the equalities caused by it and to take measures to support working single mothers by making working times more flexible. The Member States are now being called on to create new jobs for women, where possible, and to facilitate their access to high-level education, so that they can acquire skills and qualifications and claim high quality jobs."@en1
