"Mr President, almost 70% of people in the EU are employed in the service sector. However, this area accounts for most working women: more than 83%, compared to 58% of working men. Services, however, suffer from the problem of horizontal segregation, as a result of the persistent stereotypes in this sector. These are deeply rooted in society. It is assumed that there are male professions and female professions, and the female professions relate, for example, to work that women perform mainly in a domestic environment. They also include education, nursing, cleaning services and the like – all the worst paid jobs.
Women, moreover, still suffer from persistent pay differences. In the EU, they make 17% less than men, and that is not all. Almost 80% of low-paid people are women. Despite the fact that women account for almost 60% of university graduates, only one in seven members of the boards of leading European companies are women."@en1
