“…A reason for this is that, in the contemporary job market, the only personal characteristics valued are those associated with productivity, and total and unrestricted availability is expected; meanwhile, pregnancy and child-care responsibilities contribute negatively to securing a job. These factors create an employee profile that is closely associated with the male gender, which further deepens gender inequalities [ 26 , 27 ].…”

“…In the physical and global domains, men were more likely to have higher QOL levels, even after adjusting the regression model for all explanatory variables. These persistent differences presented in the model indicate that, for women, the demands of the job market, such as physical and productive capacity, professional qualifications, and physical appearance, create difficulties and that existing job market demands are not suited to accommodate gender peculiarities [ 27 , 28 , 29 ].…”

Background: This study aimed to assess the quality of life associated with gender inequalities in formal workers and to determine the effect of sociodemographic, clinical, and behavioral factors on the quality of life (QOL). Methods: This cross-sectional study involved 1270 workers. Quality of life was measured using the EUROHIS-QOL 8-Item and assessed in terms of psychological, environmental, social, and physical domains, while demographic, socioeconomic, behavioral, and clinical variables served as explanatory variables. Analyses were performed using an ordinal logistic regression model whose significance level was 5%. Results: Of the participants, 80.2% were men, and 19.8% were women; the mean age was 34 (standard deviation: ±10) and 32 (±9) years, respectively. In all prediction scenarios, men were more likely to have a higher quality of life, especially in the physical (odds ratio: 2.16; 95% confidence interval: 1.60–2.93) and psychological (odds ratio: 2.09; 95% confidence interval: 1.51–2.91) domains. Conclusions: Men and women had significantly different levels of quality of life, and sociodemographic, clinical, and behavioral variables partially clarified these differences, which were possibly established by a socio-historical process of construction of the work role determined by gender issues.

“…Poland, along with Malta and Cyprus, is one of the countries where this problem occurs to a very small extent. However, in Europe, this problem concerns some countries to a significant degree (e.g., Greece, Spain) and, as a result, it can be considered a significant issue at the level of the European Union [24].…”

Finding a fair system of rewarding employees in energy companies and its influence on their motivation to perform their duties is a problem faced by many economic entities. Therefore, the aim of the article is to initially direct further research, taking into account the basic characteristics of employees such as age, gender and level of education, in order to verify whether and to what extent it is necessary to dedicate the communication of the remuneration system to the needs of selected groups. Multiple correspondence analysis was used to analyse the data obtained from the questionnaires, examining the subjective evaluation of professional remuneration with regard to age, gender and level of education of the respondents in energy companies. The results obtained indicate that all enumerated features have an impact on the perception of work remuneration systems. It is also possible to adjust the applied remuneration solutions and the methods and content of messages to particular groups of employees of energy companies.
