Abstract

U ovom radu se analizira hrvatsko tržište rada te tržište rada Europske unije s rodnog aspekta. Osnovna svrha rada je prikazati položaj žena na hrvatskom tržištu rada u usporedbi sa tržištima rada zemalja Europske unije te njegova rodna obilježja. Polazi se od hipoteze da unatoč znatnom napretku u posljednjim desetljećima, tržište rada u Hrvatskoj još uvijek karakterizira vidna rodna nejednakost. Iako su žene u prosjeku obrazovanije od muškaraca, njihov je položaju na hrvatskom tržištu rada lošiji, što će reći da je kod žena zabilježena niža stopa ekonomske aktivnosti, niža stopa zaposlenosti, viša stopa nezaposlenosti, koncentriranost u malom broju rodno segregiranih djelatnosti s nižim dohocima te učestalost zapošljavanja žena u nestandardnim oblicima zaposlenosti, tj. na određeno vrijeme i u vremenu kraćem od punog, što im otežava napredovanje u karijeri i ostvarivanje većih prihoda. Jedan od značajnih pokazatelja ne samo položaja na tržištu rada nego općenito društvenog i ekonomskog statusa žena je rodna razlika u plaćama. Žene imaju niže dohotke, osobito u privatnom sektoru. U radu je također posvećena pozornost rodnim obilježjima regionalnih tržišta rada. Regionalna tržišta rada u Hrvatskoj se međusobno poprilično razlikuju, što je determinirano gospodarskim razvojem nekog područja, obrazovanosti radne snage, demografskom sastavu stanovništva, regionalnoj socijalnoj politici vezanoj za brigu o obitelji, ulaganjima za djecu i sl. Uočljive su regionalne razlike u položaju žena na tržištu rada. U najnepovoljnijem položaju nalaze se žene na istoku zemlje, a u najpovoljnijem one u središnjoj Hrvatskoj.

Abstract (english)

The paper reviews gender aspect of Croatian labour market and the labour market of the European Union. The main goal of the paper is to present the status of women on the Croatian labour market and its gender characteristics as well as the comparison with the European Union’s labour market. The analysis starts from the hypothesis that in spite of significant improvements that have been made in the last few decades, the Croatian labour market is still characterised by evident gender inequality. Although, in general, women’s education level is higher than the men’s, their position on the labour market is worse: the rate of women’s economic activity and employment is lower, the unemployment rate is higher, the concentration of women employed in certain typically female sectors with low pay is still quite high, non-standard forms of employment are more frequent in women’s population etc. One very important labour market indicator is the gender pay gap, which is quite high in Croatia as well as in the European Union, especially in the private sector. In the paper, the author also pays attention to regional aspects of the labour market in Croatia. Regional labour markets differ due to economic development, educational level of the labour force, demographic structure, regional social policy concerning child care, family support etc. Women in Eastern Croatia have the worst position on the labour market. Women in Central Croatia are in a better position.
