Most high-level positions in companies are filled by men even though 
the workforce in many developed countries is more than 50 percent 
female. Companies should be required to allocate a certain percentage 
of these positions to women. Do you agree? 
It is argued that corporations should be compelled to give a certain 
proportion of their executive level roles to females given that that over half of 
the workforce is female in the West. It is agreed that businesses should be 
obliged to assign a significant percentage of top-level posts to women. This 
essay will discuss firstly, that women should be paid an equal amount of 
money for doing the same job as a man, and secondly, the fact that girls are 
currently outperforming boys on many university courses; followed by a 
reasoned conclusion. 
Despite years of so-called ‘equal rights’ for women in the workplace they 
continue to be underpaid. Many women who do exactly the same job as their 
male colleagues earn less money and this is unfair. For example, a recent 
survey of accountancy and legal firms in the United Kingdom found that 
women earn on average 17% less than men with identical roles. However, this 
may be due to women taking maternity leave and falling behind their male 
counterparts. 
This unfairness is compounded by the fact that females are currently getting 
higher grades in most university courses. Even previously male-dominated 
fields, such as law and medicine, now see women in the ascendency and they 
should, therefore, be rewarded with top roles. For example, females recently 
outperformed males for the first time in law in U.K. universities. Despite this, 
employers should bear in mind that roles should be handed out on merit, not 
gender alone. 
In conclusion, women do deserve an equal share of the good jobs available, 
namely because they are capable of doing an equally good job as men and 
are achieving higher academic standards than men at university. It is 
recommended that companies heed the advice in this essay and make their 
hiring practices fairer.
