Also, the share of educated Czech women is higher than the share of educated men; educated women generally earn less than educated Czech men. Czech women are also more vulnerable to unemployment than Czech men. Some sectors of the Czech economy are dominated by men, other by women. The construction sectors are dominated by men, education by women, for example.

The number of women in top positions in these companies is also rising, by approximately 15% year-on-year.
