For women in finance, wages are not the most important thing

In the third edition of the Antal and CFA Society Polska ‘Women in Finance’ report, whose strategic partner is Bank BPH, again the largest number of women (60 percent in 2019, 51 percent in 2021) have a moderate impact on the development of the financial sector.

When it comes to the satisfaction of the female sex concerning their professional career, they are mainly influenced by high earnings (20 percent) and the atmosphere at work (20 percent). For comparison, for men, high earnings (34 percent) have the greatest impact on job satisfaction. When it comes to the atmosphere at work, it is much less important for men (17 percent). A large difference between the genders is also visible in the aspect of the importance of flexible forms of employment (it affects the satisfaction of 13 percent of women and 4 percent of men).

"Satisfaction with a professional career can be defined as a driving force used not only to perform the daily duties in the best possible way but also to acquire new skills and expand knowledge in a given area. It is also one of the main factors influencing our commitment to work and the feeling of motivation to It is worth noting that women assess the level of their sense of satisfaction with their work through the prism of money, but at the same time through the prevailing atmosphere and the possibility of continuous professional development thanks to courses and training," Natalia Białka, Managing Consultant, Antal SSC / BPO, said.
