🇺🇸#35 Understanding the Glass Floor to achieve real gender equality
Description
We all aspire to work in a committed way while meeting the essential challenges of our private lives. Yet how many people, mostly women, give up trying to progress in their careers because the obstacles seem so insurmountable? And how many people, mostly men, sacrifice too much to their work, without even really realising it?
Founder of the Happy Men & Women Share More initiative, Antoine de Gabrielli has always seen gender equality as an issue of meaning at work for both men and women. It is in this context that he has defined the notion of the glass floor, which mirrors the glass ceiling. This concept sheds light on the cultural and organisational obstacles to professional equality in companies and, in society as a whole, on the increasingly important role of work in balancing couples.
In September 2020, the first Happy Men & Women Share More podcast was devoted to the glass floor. Today, we have chosen to update it by drawing directly on three extracts from Antoine de Gabrielli's book "S'émanciper à deux, le couple, le travail et l'égalité", published last February, which could be translated as “Emancipation for two, the couple, work and equality“.
