Gender Balance Not In Sight In The Netherlands
Womenomics 101 Survey: Focus on the Netherlands
- Gender balance is not in sight yet in the Netherlands. Of the TOP 10 companies in the Netherlands, the majority (60%) do not have a single woman on their Executive Committee. The other four companies have one.
- So among the 77 people at the Executive Committee level of the Netherland’s top 10 companies, only 4 are women. 3 of them are in line / operational roles, 1 of them in a staff, or support, function.
- In the global WOMENOMICS 101 Survey 2009, 89% of American companies had at least one woman at Executive Committee level, while only 32% of European companies and 18% of Asian companies did.
- The Dutch Female Board Index 2009 has already shown that the number of women sitting on Dutch boards is well below the European average of 8.5%, with only 2.4% of all executive directors with Dutch listed companies being female.
- This survey, run globally by 20-first, has been brought to the Netherlands in partnership with LEAP the business community for female leaders in the Netherlands and Erasmus University’s Dr. Mijntje Lückerath
- The other country focus reports that have been published to date include India and France.
