Abstract
El análisis de la revisión de la literatura existente, y en concordancia con estudios de
prestigiosas consultoras internacionales; ha permitido constatar de que en el Perú aún no
existe una cultura de igualdad de género dentro de las organizaciones que proporcione una
adecuada igualdad de oportunidades para ambos géneros. En esa línea, se constató que la
presencia femenina, en los puestos más importantes de las compañías: directores y gerentes,
es casi nula. A su vez, dicha de desigualdad entre hombres y mujeres es mucho más amplia
en cuanto a sueldos, beneficios, perfiles de puesto, etc.
En ese sentido, el trabajo identifica, en primer lugar, la importancia para las empresas
que viene teniendo en los últimos años, la acreditación de igualdad de género como vehículo
para determinar el nivel de calidad, respecto de sus prácticas para garantizar las mismas
oportunidades de acceso y éxito en el mercado laboral a hombres y mujeres. En segundo
lugar, el documento provee información y conocimiento importantes para proponer una
metodología de acreditación de igualdad de género a empresas locales.
Respecto al segundo objetivo del trabajo, la propuesta reconoce al modelo GEM y a
las experiencias de países vecinos en los que ya se han adoptado este tipo de sistemas de
gestión, como fuente principal de nuestro modelo, el cual puede ser adoptado tanto por
empresas del sector privado como por agencias del gobierno. De esto, se entiende que el éxito
del modelo implica el establecimiento de una alianza público-privada, en la que el gobierno
apoya a las empresas y organizaciones participantes con capacitación y asistencia técnica
para la adopción de dicho modelo.
La originalidad del documento radica en que la propuesta metodológica, ha sido
evaluada y comentada por expertos en desarrollo e implementación de sistemas integrados de
gestión, lo cual ha servido para introducir dichas recomendaciones al trabajo, a fin de
presentar una versión mejorada
The analysis of the review of the existing literature, and in agreement with studies of prestigious international consultancies; has shown that in Peru there is still no culture of gender equality within organizations that provides adequate equality of opportunity for both genders. In this line, it was found that the presence of women, in the most important positions of companies: directors and managers, is almost nil. At the same time, inequality between men and women is much broader in terms of salaries, benefits, job profiles, etc. In this sense, the work identifies, first of all, the importance for the companies that have been in the last years, the accreditation of gender equality as a vehicle to determine the level of quality, with respect to its practices to guarantee the same opportunities of access and success in the labor market for men and women. Second, the document provides important information and knowledge to propose a methodology of accreditation of gender equality to local companies. Regarding the second objective of the work, the proposal recognizes the GEM model and the experiences of neighboring countries in which these types of management systems have already been adopted, as the main source of our model, which can be adopted both by companies in the sector private as well as government agencies. From this, it is understood that the success of the model implies the establishment of a public-private alliance, in which the government supports the companies and organizations involved with training and technical assistance to adopt such a model. The originality of the document is that the methodological proposal has been evaluated and commented by experts in development and implementation of integrated management systems, which has served to introduce these recommendations to work, in order to present an improved version
