Sample Solution
There are many challenges that Latinas face in order to be successful in the workplace. These challenges include the existence of stereotypes, the lack of mentorship, the lack of associations with professional activities or influence, and the lack of higher education. Studies show that white men have greater access than Latina women and other minorities to mentorships and support. Nearly 60% of white of men have jobs classified as administrators and managers compared to minorities and Latina women. These women are considered as disadvantaged since opportunities to progress, as well as mentorship ties across racial, ethnicity and gender gap, are so much more difficult to achieve. Therefore, promotions are less likely to be procured amongst Latinas. To reduce gender inequality Latinas face at work, employers should eliminate the pay gap between genders through work rules, internal quantitative data, and mentorship programs because it is an ethical issue and stunts national economic growth.
