Glass Ceiling
If an answer is to be given to a simple question on whether or
not there is an acceptable percentage of representation of both
genders in the work life, it would be a "No". Although it
differs by the countries and people, we can conclude that
legislations, organizations, global aid efforts are not sufficient
enough to break the glass ceiling. As a reflection of this
fact although the women play a vital role in employment, this
gender is not being represented equally at the top positions and
the board level.

as part of the legislation reforms many rights in different fields
such as education, law, social life, politics
