The number of complaints of badual harbadment at work is increasing dramatically.
More than half of women report badual harbadment in their workplace. This culminated in a special evaluation of the 2018 working climate index by the Upper Austrian Chamber of Labor. At a press conference in Vienna, Johann Kalliauer, president of AK-OÖ, called for heavier sentences and a reversal of the burden of proof, increased protection of dismissals for affected women and a greater commitment of the bosses.
The fact that the problem has become widespread is illustrated by the number of 800 to 1,000 relevant counseling sessions held each year by the AK in Upper Austria, said Kalliauer. The best protection would be: "Leaders should not look away, but should make it clear that this is not tolerated in the company." Employers should exercise their duty of care more than before.
Jokes and news
Specifically, nearly four out of ten women reported offensive remarks, such as badist jokes in their work environment, said Eva Zeglovits of the Institute for Empirical Social Research of IFES, a slight increase by compared to 2016. About one in three respondents "," Patterns "and the like, six percentage points more than before." Twelve percent said they had been physically abused and badually harbaded, a third more than the nine percent of 2016. Five percent were confronted with badist information, for example in emails or text messages, four percent with bad photos, for example, according to relevant timelines.
Reports of such experiments are increasing, said the social scientist. "It can also mean that women of today can see and clbadify things as harbadment," she said, referring to the #MeToo debate. The fact that apparently more women dare to say something is a positive development, according to Kalliauer.
In total, according to the survey, 28% of working women feel at a disadvantage. Four in ten consider that wages or salaries are worse off than their male counterparts. Almost 30% feel discriminated against in promotions and careers, as well as in job applications and badignments, 20% in the attribution of responsible tasks.
For this reason, a significant proportion of women are engaged in housework and children almost alone: "Half a half" is experienced only in about a fifth of households – say working women – or about a quarter – say men – reported Christoph Hofinger of the SORA Institute (Institute for Social Research and Analysis). Forty-seven percent and forty-four percent, respectively, reported that the woman was "mainly" in the household.
In addition, the situation of some 140,000 nurses in Austria was examined more closely, with 83% of women. Almost three quarters have to work overtime. More than half work in teams or in rotation. Nevertheless, employee motivation is above average, Kalliauer said. Career choice care is becoming less of an issue, especially because of the shortage of hospitalized people, mobile care and low-income people.
