MANY HIGH-LEVEL POSITIONS IN COMPANIES ARE FILLED BY MEN EVEN THOUGH THE WORKFORCE IN MANY DEVELOPED COUNTRIES IS MORE THAN 50 PERCENT FEMALE. COMPANIES SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO ALLOCATE A CERTAIN PERCENTAGE OF THESE POSITIONS TO WOMEN. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

women and in spite of

, numerous top positions are allocated to male employees in the corporation. It is argued that there is a need to allow the desired fraction of these posts to female workers. In my opinion, I completely disagree with the above argument because senior positions ought to be assigned on the basis of qualifications,

experience

, and skills, not gender.

Firstly

, allotment of higher positions should be based on the qualification of the employees, not on their sex. The senior posts require individuals who are well-qualified, so the selection

the concerned place should be done while keeping in mind the degrees of the workforce.

For instance

, the recruitment of senior personnel in many multinational enterprises is done in accordance with the educational qualification of an employee. Another criterion for assigning a top place in organisations are job

experience

and practical expertise. People who are trained and possess a certain set of skills add value to the companies and these kind of individuals are more suitable for the higher posts.

Moreover

, greater the number of years an individual has devoted to the corporation, more experienced a person is.

This

results in the maturity to take important decisions during the need of the hour.

In other words

ought to consider for the same.
