"I voted for the report on the situation of women approaching retirement age. The situation of women aged over 50 in Europe is worrying. On account of their age and gender, women are in a more vulnerable situation and struggle to find a job. They are much more likely to work on a casual or part-time basis and to be isolated. This report advocates equality between men and women, particularly with regard to salary and pension calculations. It emphasises the need to cater for women over 50 in European policies. It makes many relevant proposals such as extending parental leave to people who care for their parents, and establishing training policies aimed at older women. This report does not just stop at informative recommendations: it also clearly highlights the problems affecting women over 50. For instance, it is important not to forget all the forms of violence that elderly women face and which people tend to underestimate."@en1
