Parental leave is key turning point in Careers of Women

Latest research of The Stepstone Group reveals that parental leave is a key turning point in people’s careers, particularly for women. This is because only half of mothers continue to work in the same position afterwards.

What’s more a third of women do not return at all after parental leave and ultimately leave their employer. 17 percent stay with the company but work in a new position. At the same time, 85 percent of men continue to work in their previous role. These are the key findings of the study “Working Parents & Beyond”, for which The Stepstone Group surveyed over 2,000 working parents with children under the age of 10 on the topics of career, family life and work-life balance.

Three out of four mothers reduce their working hours – but only 17 percent of fathers

Regardless of whether they work in a new or current role, three out of four mothers decide to reduce their working hours after returning to work. Among fathers, only 17 percent prefer to work fewer hours. Above all, a shortage of childcare options for children forces parents to reduce their working hours: 66 percent of parents want to spend more time with their sons and daughters, 65 percent want to avoid the double burden of childcare and work.

Two out of three mothers want to work full-time or close to full-time

Once mothers have decided to reduce their working hours after parental leave, the way back is often difficult: 65% of mothers who have reduced their working hours after parental leave would like to work full-time (35-40 hours) or in a job close to full-time (30-35 hours) – provided childcare is guaranteed. In this case, every second mother would prefer to work full-time. At the same time, one in two fathers would like to work full-time under the same conditions, and 23 percent would like to work close to full-time.

“The numbers are clear: There is a marked gap between aspiration and reality when it comes to family and career in Germany – at the cost of urgently needed productivity. In times of unemployment, it is essential that we keep parents in the labor market as much as possible. The study shows that many want to. It is high time to make it possible for them, because they need more benefits from their employers and an infrastructure that really supports them. This is the only way we can decisively counteract gender inequality and labor shortages. The following still applies; mothers in particular are one of our most important reserves for the labor market,” says Dr. Tobias Zimmermann, labor market expert at The Stepstone Group.

About the study „Working Parents & Beyond“

In our fast-paced workplace, the balance between professional demands and personal well-being is becoming increasingly important. How should work be structured to harmonize career, family life and everyday life? In October 2023, The Stepstone Group surveyed around 12,000 people in Germany, including around 6,000 parents and 2,000 with children under the age of 10, about challenges and opportunities in the area of work-life balance. The survey is representative of the German working population by age and gender.

Aurubis equal opportunity network Women4Metals wins HR Excellence Award

An exceptional distinction for an exceptional initiative: Women4Metals, Aurubis’ initiative for advancing women, won first prize in the Diversity & Inclusion Management category of the Human Resources Excellence Awards 2023. Women4Metals (W4M) was honored for its innovative projects and one-of-a-kind commitment to making the metal industry more attractive for women. The HR Excellence Awards are the most significant honor for outstanding HR management in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The Mercer management consultancy, which is supporting W4M in enhancing its professional profile, shared the award.

W4M is an industry-specific initiative for advancing women in the metal industry. The network was founded by female Aurubis employees in 2019 with the goal of attracting more female staff to the company and to the traditionally male sector. Women are underrepresented in industrial companies, making up just under 16 percent of the workforce; this is true of the metal sector as well, where women account for 20 percent. Another W4M objective: to achieve equal opportunity for all employees. As such, the initiative has been open to supporters of all genders from the very beginning.

In its short existence, the W4M team has initiated and realized a number of projects in the focus areas recruiting, career development, working conditions, and awareness. This has included diversity action days, the analysis of female employees’ working conditions at all Aurubis production sites, consulting among colleagues, training programs, and representation of the initiative at industry events and conferences.

“The HR Excellence Award is a well-deserved honor for the entire Women4Metals team,” Aurubis CEO Roland Harings said at the award ceremony in Berlin. “The issues the network addresses are as relevant as ever. Offering equal opportunity to everyone plays a key role in every company’s future success. We also want to make our industry more attractive for women. Our objective is to draw more women to the metal industry.”

“Women4Metals is a groundbreaking HR initiative,” explained Laura Zielinski, Head of Human Resources. “Women’s empowerment and equal opportunity for all employees are an absolute must for those who want to attract the talents of tomorrow and retain good people. The work of Women4Metals is making a clear contribution to the Aurubis brand among job applicants and employees.”

At Aurubis, the network now has over 300 registered members, 70 percent women and 30 percent men. The initiative has also been open to other companies and organizations in the sector since 2022, and more than 60 are currently interested in being involved with W4M. Furthermore, the W4M team networks with similar initiatives worldwide.

The HR Excellence Awards (HREA) recognize special achievements in 33 categories of HR management. The jury’s criteria encompass innovation, creativity, implementation in the company strategy, results and efficiency, and the effectiveness of the project/campaign. This year, the jury included more than 40 experienced HR experts and supervisors. The awards are sponsored by Quadriga Media Berlin GmbH and the Human Resources Manager trade magazine.
