Industrial sex segregation refers to the division of men and women into separate roles and occupations within a particular industry or workplace. This practice often leads to discrimination, unequal opportunities, and limited advancement for one gender over the other. In industrial settings, women are typically assigned to lower-paying, lower-skilled jobs, while men are more likely to hold positions of power and authority. This segregation perpetuates gender stereotypes and limits the potential for gender equality in the workplace. Efforts to reduce industrial sex segregation include promoting diversity and inclusion, providing equal access to training and advancement opportunities, and challenging traditional gender roles and expectations. | Industrial sex segregation refers to the division of men and women into separate roles and occupations within a particular industry or workplace.
