Gender Diversity in Selected Czech IT Companies

Original language description

In the presented text, attention is focused on one specific professional term – “gender”. Its concept will first be defined in the theoretical part of this article, and then, based on a review of relevant sources, the first half of the document will outline findings related to gender issues in the workplace, with an emphasis on the possible positives (benefits) of this type of diversity in a person’s working life – i.e. within the performance of professional duties in an enterprise, company or generally an organisation in which people are employed. Subsequently, the practical part of this article will build on the theoretical findings in its first half, specifically through the empirical work of the author. This will take the form of a survey carried out on the employees of a total of four different companies, where survey respondents will be asked individual questions (survey items) how (or if at all) gender diversity is supported and used in their workplaces (how it is manifested, etc.). The aim of the document is to present the concept of gender in relation to a person’s working life and describe the current situation in companies operating in the Czech Republic in the area of gender diversity. In addition to the described general objective of the entire article, goals related to the author’s own exploratory investigation will be defined in its empirical part. On the basis of the aforementioned survey, data from a selected sample of involved respondents will be processed. The results expressed on the basis of this data will complement the first half of the text, which will deal mainly with the knowledge, opinions and findings of other people, professionals in various fields, in whom it is possible to observe an interest in gender issues either in general, or taking into account the professional life of the adult population or directly in relation to the already mentioned gender diversity. For the theoretical part of the document, publications obtained during the author’s research on the basis of the chosen keywords (these include gender, gender diversity, gender stereotyping, discrimination and others) will be utilised.
