If a gender audit shows equal numbers of women and men but contract types differ what should be checked?
Correct answer: C
Equal numbers of women and men do not by themselves prove workplace equality. If women are more often placed on temporary, short-term, or insecure contracts than men, their job security, benefits, and career progression may be affected. Training access also matters, but when contract types differ, the immediate issue to examine is the gender gap in employment security. Exam tip: in a gender audit, compare contract duration, permanence, and employment benefits along with headcounts.

View question detailsIf a woman's flexible work is seen as low commitment but a man's flexible work as smart work what is this?
Correct answer: A
This is a gender double standard because the same work arrangement—flexible work—is judged as low commitment for a woman but as smart work for a man. Merit-based evaluation would assess actual performance rather than gender. Exam tip: If identical behaviour is judged differently for women and men, identify it as a gender double standard.
