| Summary: | The study aimed to investigate the veracity of the glass ceiling phenomenon among women in the industry. Forty (40) males and females from professional and sales groups were administered an adapted version of Cooper's Job Satisfaction Inventory. Scores of these two groups were statistically compared on each of the five (5) scales of the instrument, namely job, work group, organization, leadership and physical working environment (i.e. these categories of job satisfaction have been adapted as possible venues of discrimination against women) using the t-test for two independent groups. All analyses have yielded non-significant probability values, suggesting that the glass ceiling phenomenon has ceased to exist within these sectors. The researchers propose that other standardized instruments be used as measures of job satisfaction and discrimination to further validate these findings. |
