Vertical job segregation refers to the unequal distribution of job positions based on gender, with women being underrepresented in higher-level or managerial roles compared to men. In vertically segregated job sectors, women tend to be concentrated in lower-level positions and are less likely to advance to higher positions within the same organization or industry. This segregation can be attributed to various factors, including stereotypes and biases about women's abilities and leadership skills, lack of access to training and development opportunities, limited networking opportunities, and discrimination in hiring and promotion practices. Vertical job segregation is considered a form of gender inequality in the workplace and can limit women's career advancement and earning potential. | Vertical job segregation refers to the unequal distribution of job positions based on gender, with women being underrepresented in higher-level or managerial roles compared to men.
