lpv:translated text	"There must be no distinction in the advancement of men and women, both within the labour market generally and in terms of their promotion to management posts. Achieving social justice and making use of women’s skills also strengthen the economy. Having society represented at all levels of management can only be of benefit. Women and men must, however, be guaranteed equal chances to develop. We need to think of effective ways to increase the number of women on the boards of companies. The current trend is much too slow. Special action needs to be taken to enable qualified and educated women to reach positions that are difficult for them to reach at present. Norms regarding self-regulation and good governance are an excellent method for achieving this. In Finland, we have been able to increase board membership among women without a need for legislation on quotas, and both genders are represented in decision-making bodies. Could this become a broader model for the whole of Europe?"@en1
