Abstract
This article is dedicated to studying gender equality in the context of recruitment and personnel selection,
particularly focusing on strategies and practices of companies as an element of professional ethics. The research
aims to highlight the relevance of gender inequality issues in these processes and identify ways to improve the
situation. One of the main objectives of this work is to analyze existing strategies and practices of companies
regarding gender equality in recruitment and personnel selection. Specifically, the effectiveness of different
methods such as the use of smart algorithms and assessment tools, the implementation of gender-balanced
decision-making committees, and the development of objective evaluation criteria for candidates are investigated.
The research is based on a systematic review methodology of scientific publications and analysis of
studies related to gender equality in recruitment and personnel selection. Both quantitative and qualitative research
studies were utilized, providing a comprehensive overview of the issue and enabling conclusions to be drawn
regarding the effectiveness of different strategies.
The article provides a general characterization of gender inequality in recruitment and personnel selection
and analyzes factors that contribute to stereotypes and biases in these processes. Additionally, various strategies
that companies can employ to enhance gender equality are discussed, such as the use of objective evaluation
criteria and the expansion of a multidimensional approach to recruitment and personnel training. The overall
characterization of the work involves analyzing the current state of gender equality in recruitment and personnel
selection, identifying problematic aspects, and offering practical recommendations for companies to achieve
greater equality and objectivity. The research findings can be valuable for both researchers interested in gender
equality and practitioners working in the field of human resource management and recruitment.
