Unit of Competency: WORK IN TEAM ENVIRONMENT

Module Title: OBSERVING GENDER SENSITIVITY IN THE WORKPLACE
Module Descriptor: This module covers the necessary knowledge, skills and attitudes
to increase your awareness on the different aspects and nuances
of gender and how it affects your attitude, values and perceptions
towards yourself and others in various situations, in nearly all
societies, men and women, boys and girls have different statuses
and play different roles. Men and women behave differently, dress
differently, have different attitudes and interests, and have different
leisure activities. Contrary to traditionally held beliefs that these
differences between male and female behavior are biologically or
genetically determined, recent research has revealed that they are
to a large extent socially constructed, or based on the concept of
gender. In addition gender bias/inequality in entrepreneurship and
in the economy is discussed.
