Abstract

An increasing number of studies are being conducted with the objective of understanding discriminatory practices associated with the management of female professionals. Aimed at broadening this discussion in the context of the fourth industrial revolution, this paper discusses results of a quantitative research developed with 45,217 professionals (including women and men) from Brazilian companies participants of the Alliance for the Empowerment of Women, an initiative by UN Women. The results show that women are still underrepresented at the top level of organizations and have little participation in the most demanded professional areas in the context of the Industry 4.0.
