The study, presented on Wednesday, indicted that while women are represented in the managements of 42.7% of companies, the overall share of women in managements is on average only 27%. Women are better represented in the services sphere, the financial sector and the public sector, and in managements they usually have the position of CEO, chief financial officer or staff manager. Women are represented most seldom in the post of production managers.
The survey showed that 80.6% of the companies do not do anything to create and preserve gender balance in the management. 9.6% of companies support female managers via various measures (such as flexible conditions for harmonising the family and professional life), 3.7% recruite managers with gender balance in view and 1.1% of companies have internal gender quotas.
In May-July 2015, Civitta and Estonian Business School conducted a study, commissioned by Enterprise Estonia, which mapped the Estonian corporate governance practices.
