"The rapporteur defines the concept of ‘precarious work’ as forms of employment with a low level of job security, low pay, a lack of social protection and employment-related benefits, a lack of protection from discrimination, limited prospects for advancement on the labour market or collective representation, or a working environment that fails to meet minimum safety and health standards. The financial and economic crisis has made precarious work an even more visible and urgent problem. Companies have made decisive cuts to temporary jobs and there is a fear that the jobs which have been lost will not be replaced. Unfortunately, the situation has had the biggest impact on women, and the problem is most visible in the services industry (hotels, catering, education, health, social work) and agriculture. Women employed in these sectors are not employed on a full-time basis, which means that their salaries and pensions are lower, they receive lower levels of social support and lack career advancement opportunities. The latest research indicates that it is more difficult for women to find a job than for men. Furthermore, there is still a huge gender pay gap (the gap stands around 18%, with women earning a fifth less per hour than men). In view of the abovementioned problems, I voted in favour of the report, which proposes a solution to this difficult situation with regard to employment policy."@en1
