Gender equality in public sector employment

Creating equal participation and opportunities for women contributes to a more representative and diverse workforce. In many countries, the public sector is expected to be a model employer, leading the way and setting standards for the implementation of gender equality, and promoting diversity. A public sector workforce that reflects the diversity of society would probably deliver better results, for example, a diverse workforce is better positioned to understand and serve the needs of the various segments of the population.
