"Strengthening the role of women in the management of companies is not only a question of ethics and equality; it is also essential for economic growth and a competitive internal market. The report on ‘Women and Business Leadership’ intends to increase women’s access to top jobs.
The European Parliament requires companies to take measures to increase women’s presence on boards of directors. If no significant improvement is made, Parliament intends to ask the European Commission to propose strict legislation. Companies do not hire men or women, they hire talents. Women in Italy, Greece and Spain are particularly vulnerable to gender discrimination. We should not only declare our position on that problem but also take steps to prevent discrimination in specific countries. I voted ‘in favour’."@en1
