Atienza, Reghis Fel H. Leonardia, Samantha Nicole L. Magsipoc, Cristine Loraine M. Gender equality is an important goal that the Philippines aims to achieve. With the rising importance of gender equality in society, labor force participation rates among women have continuously increased. Although the accounting industry was seen as a masculine profession, the rise of women in the field shows the progress society has made for its professionals. However, the presence of women in the industry still has its drawbacks as they are still more prevalent in occupying lower ranking positions. With this, the researchers aim to determine how men and women with different intersectionalities are occupying space in accounting firms through their salary and career progression. An online survey questionnaire was utilized and distributed to collect data from accounting professionals from selected audit firms in the Philippines. The data gathered was analyzed through descriptive statistics and ordinal logistic regression. The results showed that gender had a significant relationship with salary and career progression with women found in lower salary and career levels having a negative indirect relationship. The significant effect of gender intersected with other social identities had its implications, but further research would be necessary to determine the extent and deeper experiences of the accounting professionals in relation to gender inequality in their respective organizations. 2023-07-19T07:00:00Z text application/pdf https://animorepository.dlsu.edu.ph/etdb_acc/69 https://animorepository.dlsu.edu.ph/context/etdb_acc/article/1124/viewcontent/Taking_up_space__An_intersectional_approach_on_the_corporate_expe.pdf Accountancy Bachelor's Thesis Animo Repository Accountants—Philippines Women accountants—Philippines Sex role in the work environment—Philippines Sex discrimination in employment—Philippines Accounting
