Women and men in leadership positions in the European Union, 2013

A review of the situation and recent progress

Meiteashonraí an fhoilseacháin

This report is produced in the context of the Commission’s commitment to monitor the current situation and trends in the participation of women and men in high-level decision-making positions. It aims to highlight the gender gaps that remain in leadership positions but also to show the progress that is being made to reduce them. It includes examples of action taken by governments, business and other stakeholders to boost the participation of women in leadership positions. Section one provides an update of progress on the participation of women and men on the boards of major publicly listed companies in the EU based on the most recent figures (April, 2013) and how this has changed over recent years. This builds on the Commission’s progress report published in 2012 and earlier reviews. The section also investigates the gender balance in the key decision-making bodies of national central banks and the EU financial institutions. Section two deals with politics and considers the composition of elected assemblies and governments in Member States and in the European Parliament and recent trends in the representation of women and men. Section three reviews the gender balance in the top two tiers of public administrations at national and European level. Section four looks at the representation of women and men in the judiciary, considering the gender balance amongst senior judges in the highest national courts and in European courts. The report is, as far as possible, based on quantitative analysis of the situation with the majority of data being drawn from the European Commission database on women and men in decision-making, which is freely available for online consultation. The database includes comparable data for EU Member States from 2003 onwards. Where relevant, 2003 is therefore used as the starting point for analysis of developments through time. The report was compiled and all data collected before the accession of Croatia on 1st July 2013. All EU aggregates therefore refer to the EU-27 and, where relevant, data for Croatia are grouped with those for other countries from outside the EU. The Commission database will be updated to reflect the accession of Croatia later in 2013.
