Abstract

As China enjoys being the second largest economy in the world, it’s women can said to have the credit for its country’s economic development in this 21st century. This paper studies the women employment factor in China and identifies the issue of lower female workforce in Chinese businesses despite of Chinese women, from various walks of life excelling in the corporate world, and studies their income and the employment discrimination faced by them. This research takes a correlation methodology approach to establish the cause of such lower women presence in the Chinese businesses. The study uses re-gression analysis to establish the relationships between the women employed in Chinese businesses and the success rate of those businesses. The rate of discrimination against women in employment by viz. family, male peers and company officials is also being determined. The research concludes with women’s significance in big Chinese corporate giants highlighting their con-tribution towards them through continued presence, the need of increasing female income and bringing in a level playing field for women through equal opportunity policies, the future prediction on the rate of firm profits and the need for further research on the broader aspects of the issue specific to the topic in concern.

Highlights

  • Multiple linear regression has been predominantly selected in order to have multiple independent variables so as to produce meaningful empirical results with expected significant values to the statistical measures in the regression model, and is corresponding to the fact stated by Jones (1972) [22], that the multiple linear regression analysis can have any number of independent variables to delineate its association with the geologic variable

  • This study has tried to highlight on the issue of lower women presence in Chinese jobs through an analysis into the characteristics of female labor force participation, women’s rate of income in the jobs and the nature of employment discrimination being faced by them in today’s 21st century corporate China
