For International Women’s Day, we are proud to celebrate
the women on our team at Gluckstein Lawyers. Women hold key positions at
Gluckstein – they are lawyers, law clerks, paralegals, administrative
assistants, managers, marketers, receptionists and medical
staff.
Gluckstein celebrates the strides that have been made to achieve
gender equality, but we also recognize that we still have a way to
go. To break down the barriers that still exist for many women, we
understand and share the following industry insights we must all be
aware of:
Administrative work
In many firms, including Gluckstein, there are a higher number
of women in administrative roles. The industry has more female
assistants than males. We must recognize this fact and ensure that
we do not fall into a bias of assigning administrative tasks
directly to women, when there may be a male available to do the
work, or a team member responsible for those specific tasks.
