Tóm tắt

The labor market situation for Croatian women has improved significantly over the past decade, approaching the averages observed across the European Union (EU). Nevertheless, employment rates for young women (ages 15-24) and older women (ages 55-64) remain lower compared to their counterparts in the EU. The objective of this report is to provide the government with actionable recommendations to unlock the potential of women in the Croatian labor market based on international examples and good practices that are already working in Croatia. Based on an analysis of the barriers to quality employment that women face and a review of government measures addressing these challenges, this report outlines opportunities for enhancing women's contribution to the Croatian labor market. By filling important knowledge gaps, this report aims to inform the design of policies and interventions to improve progress toward gender equality in the country's labor market.
