隨著女性地位的提高，各行各業(yè)的女強(qiáng)人數(shù)量激增。英國(guó)的一項(xiàng)調(diào)查顯示，管理層女性占比高的公司盈利能力更強(qiáng)。然而，英國(guó)幼兒托管服務(wù)的欠缺卻讓職場(chǎng)女性無法放心拼事業(yè)，進(jìn)入最高管理層的女性依然是鳳毛麟角。

Women should play a central role in the post-pandemic economic recovery, with evidence revealing companies with more female leaders outperform those dominated by men, according to House of Commons research.

英國(guó)下議院的調(diào)查指出，有證據(jù)顯示，女性高管更多的企業(yè)比以男性高管為主的企業(yè)表現(xiàn)更佳，這說明女性在后疫情時(shí)代的經(jīng)濟(jì)復(fù)蘇過程中應(yīng)發(fā)揮核心作用。

Accusing the government of ignoring women’s needs during the coronavirus pandemic and side-lining them in plans for recovery, the shadow secretary for women and equalities, Anneliese Dodds, said the data showed women held the key to a stronger economy, but they were being held back by a lack of investment and the risk of “childcare deserts”.

英國(guó)影子內(nèi)閣女性和平等部大臣安納利斯·多茲表示，調(diào)查數(shù)據(jù)表明女性掌握著經(jīng)濟(jì)復(fù)蘇的關(guān)鍵，但是女性卻被投資不足和“育兒荒漠”風(fēng)險(xiǎn)拉住了后腿。她指責(zé)英國(guó)政府在新冠疫情期間忽視女性的需求，并在經(jīng)濟(jì)復(fù)蘇計(jì)劃中把女性排除在外。

She warned that the UK was facing a “childcare emergency” with early years settings struggling to recruit staff and the Early Years Alliance reporting that some areas of England have seen a 25% decline in the number of places in the past six years.

她警告稱，英國(guó)正面臨著“育兒危機(jī)”和托幼機(jī)構(gòu)招聘難的問題。早期教育聯(lián)盟報(bào)告稱，英國(guó)部分地區(qū)的托幼名額在過去六年內(nèi)減少了25%。

"The childcare sector is facing a short-term emergency, seeing childcare deserts in different parts of the country, with providers going bust and not being able to continue operating – that has an awful impact on working women,” said Dodds. “Childcare providers are part of our economic infrastructure, we have to find a more sustainable way forward.”

多茲說：“托幼行業(yè)正在面臨一場(chǎng)短期危機(jī)，英國(guó)不同地區(qū)都出現(xiàn)了‘育兒荒漠’，托幼機(jī)構(gòu)紛紛破產(chǎn)，無法繼續(xù)運(yùn)營(yíng)，這給職場(chǎng)女性帶來了可怕的后果。托幼機(jī)構(gòu)是英國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施的一部分，我們必須找到更加可持續(xù)的方式來發(fā)展托幼機(jī)構(gòu)。”

To mark International Women’s Day, which is on Tuesday, Labour have collated data from the House of Commons library. It cited McKinsey research that shows companies in the top quartile for gender diversity on executive teams were 25% more likely to have above-average profitability than companies in the bottom, while companies with more than 30% female executives were more likely to outperform companies that don’t, according to research from academics from the Universities of Glasgow and Leicester.

為了紀(jì)念3月8日的國(guó)際婦女節(jié)，英國(guó)工黨整理了來自下議院圖書館的數(shù)據(jù)。工黨援引麥肯錫的調(diào)查結(jié)果稱，管理層性別最均衡的企業(yè)比性別最不均衡的企業(yè)盈利能力超過平均水平的可能性高出25%。與此同時(shí)，格拉斯哥大學(xué)和萊斯特大學(xué)的學(xué)者開展的調(diào)查發(fā)現(xiàn)，女性高管超過30%的公司比女性高管不足30%的公司表現(xiàn)更佳。

But only eight women, and no women of colour, are currently employed as CEOs in the FSTE 100, while women hold only 14% of executive directorships and 38% of all directorships, according to the Fawcett Society’s Sex and Power report 2022.

但是，福西特協(xié)會(huì)的2022性別與權(quán)力報(bào)告指出，目前在倫敦證券交易所上市的百?gòu)?qiáng)公司擔(dān)任首席執(zhí)行官的女性只有8位，而且全都是白人。在這些公司中，擔(dān)任執(zhí)行董事的女性只有14%，擔(dān)任管理職位的女性只有38%。

The data shows that women-led SMEs contribute about ￡85bn to economic output, but Beis research shows that only 16% of small business employers and one in three of entrepreneurs are women. There is further evidence that fewer women get access to financing and business loans, with only 15% of bank financing applications and 22% of new primary business bank accounts openings coming from women.

數(shù)據(jù)顯示，女性領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的中小企業(yè)對(duì)經(jīng)濟(jì)產(chǎn)出的貢獻(xiàn)約為850億英鎊（約合人民幣7103億元），但是英國(guó)商業(yè)能源與產(chǎn)業(yè)戰(zhàn)略部的調(diào)查表明，只有16%的小企業(yè)家和三分之一的企業(yè)家是女性。還有證據(jù)顯示，能獲取融資貸款和商業(yè)貸款的女性更少，只有15%的銀行融資申請(qǐng)和22%的新增主營(yíng)業(yè)務(wù)收入銀行賬戶來自女性。

New global data from gender equity researcher Equileap, released for IWD, shows that in the UK, women make up only a fifth (20%) of executive team members, 13 companies (6%) have a female CEO, and 27 companies (13%) have a female CFO.

性別平等調(diào)研機(jī)構(gòu)Equileap為紀(jì)念國(guó)際婦女節(jié)新發(fā)布的全球數(shù)據(jù)顯示，在英國(guó)，擔(dān)任管理人員的女性只占五分之一（20%），首席執(zhí)行官為女性的公司只有13家（6%），首席財(cái)務(wù)官為女性的公司只有27家。
