Gender inequity in an European Union flooded with immigrants

Gender inequality is a phenomenon that everyone denies on a declarative level, but which we all know exists. When we talk about gender discrimination, the females are the most affected, although in the European Union there are laws that offer equal opportunities to women and men. In an ever-changing landscape for Europe, it should not be forgotten that immigrants are subject to the same trends as the local population, but non-European women can negatively impact the statistics on efforts to mitigate this discrimination. This paper aims to analyse the phenomenon of gender inequality in the labour market. We consider analysing indicators such as: employment rate, salary level, type of employment (part-time / full-time), retention at work, number of worked hours, as well as ease of finding a job. This analyse is focused on the European Union, for the years 2015–2022. We are expecting a decreasing trend, but combined with the necessity to re-skill human resources for the jobs of the future.
