As a part of a platform, we presenting a new innovative application AGA - Application of Gender Audit as quantitative gender inspection/checkup of enterprises, based on the analysis of economic indicators of the enterprise that uses the techniques of statistical and econometrical analysis!
The scientific novelty and originality of the proposed investigation seems to be the next step in the development of approaches to gender equality at the micro-economic level as an important component of the evolution of gender-based management. Using the developing software will be calculated in one application (AGA - Application of Gender Audit) in very short time the following: the value of gender horizontal and vertical segregation on the enterprises, the human capital influence on the value of men and women wages, the degree of gender discrimination in payment, etc.
The methodology of gender audits offered by ILO is based on the principle of active participation and uses the sociological methods of analysis (this kind of audit is classified as "qualitative" and performed on the basis of active participation (usually some surveys or questionnaires to all employees or only for some of their categories) brings the risk of subjectivity and data twisting in responses. This processes takes too many time & resources. In addition, the evidence of gender segregation and pay discrimination are in the economic field, not in sociology. Therefore, it is unlikely to obtain the exhaustive explanation by extremely simple surveys and questionnaires based on the sociological reports.
These circumstances can motivate the need for innovative software by economic methods, requiring a more detailed analysis of the economic data of enterprises. Thus, not opposing to the standard methodology of qualitative audit proposed by the ILO with the use of sociological methods, we propose a new innovative application (AGA - Application of Gender Audit) as quantitative gender inspection/checkup of enterprises, based on the analysis of economic indicators of the enterprise that uses the techniques of statistical and econometrical analysis.
This Platform & AGA (Application of Gender Audit) were created within project STCU #6336.
