DETERMINING THE PERCEPTIONS OF GENDER DISCRIMINATION OF HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS: THE EXAMPLE OF TUNCELİ

Abstract

As in other sectors, female employees in the health sector are exposed to gender discrimination in areas such as career choice, recruitment, career, promotion, remuneration and access to rights. This situation is not unique to our country, but is experienced at different levels in almost every part of the world. The way to ensure social equality in business life is possible with the prevention of gender discrimination, whether consciously or unconsciously. For this reason, the more researches on the subject, the more awareness is created and awareness is raised, the faster the progress will be made. In this context, the aim of the research is to determine the attitudes of healthcare professionals towards female employees and to offer solutions to employees and managers about gender equality with the data obtained, and to provide scientific contribution on this issue. For this purpose, a research was carried out in the hospitals and units in the city center of Tunceli. The data of the study were collected from 180 health workers through the “Attitude Scale towards Female Employees”. The collected quantitative data were analyzed in the statistical package program and the findings were interpreted and discussed. As a result of the research, when the participants evaluated the "Attitude Scale Towards Female Employees" together with all demographic sub-dimensions as a whole, no significant difference was detected. However, when evaluated separately, significant differences were found in gender, marital status, age, number of children, occupation and years of service.
