Minister hails women’s progress in employment
amily Minister Chris Said visited Lufthansa Technik Malta on the occasion of International Women’s Day yesterday, pointing out the achievements of women in jobs which were previously considered to be men’s domain. The company employs around 600 people, of which 64 are women who are involved in practically every task the aircraft maintenance company carries out. The number includes four managers and a team leader. CEO Stephan Drewes said that the company was proud of its female employees, adding that there was no difference between the men and women it employed. The proportion of female employees is higher than in Lufthansa Technik’s plant in Germany, he explained. Dr Said said that Lufthansa Technik provided a clear example of the progress women had registered, adding that it was clear that women now had the same opportunities as men. He noted that the company employed women in technical and manual jobs which were perceived to be solely men’s domain until recently, adding that this barrier had since shattered. These results, the minister said, were also due to continued investment in education. He remarked that gender equality was particularly evident in education, since 60% of university students were women.(independent.com.mt) Whether women or men new jobs are always good.
