Women at Work – Insights from .mdd

The European job market is becoming increasingly female-friendly. Studies indicate that women bring high qualifications, flexibility and the ability to adapt to dynamic conditions to various industries. A greater representation of women not only influences the organisational culture of companies, but also contributes to their increased efficiency and innovation. At .mdd, we recognise the key role of female employees in our organisation - their competence, flexibility and ability to make strategic decisions are the foundation of our success. We are proud of the growing number of women in our team and recognise their contribution to the company.

In this article, we take a closer look at the situation of women in the job market and the structure of our organisation.

In the European market, women make up around 50% of the total workforce and occupy roughly 30% of management positions. We are proud to say that the statistics for our team are similar and trend upward. Based on the changes of the last few years, the future looks promising.

• In 2018, 39% of our employees were female and that number grew to 45% in 2023.
• During this time, the number of female employees has increased by 107% (from 202 to 419).
• 1/3 of management positions are held by women.

Women still face many challenges in the job market, such as dated stereotypes or difficulties in combining work and private life. At .mdd, we recognise the importance of creating conditions that promote equality and support female employees in their professional development. We aim to build a working environment in which everyone, regardless of gender, has the opportunity to fulfil their potential. Our goal is a workspace in which everyone has an equal opportunity to succeed.

At .mdd, we actively support women and take specific measures to provide them with equal opportunities for career development. These include:

• Flexible forms of employment - helping to combine work and private life and facilitating work-life balance.
• Training and courses - to support the development of professional qualifications and leadership skills.
• Flexible working hours and the possibility to work from home - making it easier to organise time and family life.

Changes in the global structure of women’s employment, at .mdd as well, show a clear upward trend. While we are convinced that investing in the development of female talent brings real benefits to entire organisations, we recognise that the road to professional equality still needs work. Our priority remains to create an environment where everyone has an equal opportunity to succeed.

At .mdd, we believe that women are a key part of our company's success. With their commitment, competence and determination, we create a dynamic and modern workplace that contributes to the development of the entire organisation.
