"I voted in favour of the report on women’s working conditions in the services sector because it is essential to act quickly to improve women’s conditions in this sector, since 80% of women in the EU labour market work in the services sector and are still subject to serious discrimination, both in access to technical and highly qualified positions, and in salary levels.
I think that in order to improve women’s conditions in the services sector, it is necessary for Member States to facilitate access to upskilling programmes under the European Social Fund, offering computer training courses to reduce the gender digital divide and enable women to have access to many highly technological job opportunities.
Lastly, the EU must take steps to transform the precarious work often performed by women in the services sector into work with rights and genuine prospects for training and professional development. This is particularly so during this economic crisis, in which we must get everything we can from our human resources in order to breathe new life into the European economy."@en1
