CHAPTER I

INTRODUCTION

The Problem and Its Background

The male-dominated industries are those that are traditionally or

predominantly employ men, with women making up minor portion of the workforce.

There is a sizable gender difference in these areas with regard to employment,

leadership, and representation. Over the last few years, women have made enormous

progress in the workplace, tearing down barriers and breaking through glass ceilings

in areas formerly thought to be solely for males. But because of this, women in male

dominated industries often face unique challenges and obstacles as they navigate

their careers. In addition, sexual harassment against women is more prevalent in

fields where men predominate. Societal expectations and ideas about women’s

leadership ability can also be a hurdle (Catalyst, 2021). However, women can utilize

underestimate as an edge and confront unfavorable perceptions and causes for

underestimation (Taylor Irwin, 2019). These factors show the influence of male-

dominated industries to women’s career. These elements are what drive women’s

aspirations for successful careers in fields with a male majority, and they create

effective advancement plans for achieving these goals.

From the article "Gender Profile of the Philippines" (n.d.), the women in the

Philippines prefer to pursue works abroad as they face unfair treatment in the
2

country. Thus, Millions of women have left the Philippines to work as overseas

terms of newly employed OFWs, women outnumbered males between 1998 and

2006. In industries where men predominate, Filipino women confront a number of

difficulties. The gender pay gap is one of the biggest issues, with males making

more money than women in both low-skill and high-skill industries (Helle &

Buchhave & Nadia Belhaj Hassine Belghith, 2022). In industries where men

predominate, harassment, unequal access to high income rates, and the glass ceiling

may also be experienced by women. However, certain Filipino women, like Captain

Maria Kristina Javellana in the marine business, have been able to break through the

glass ceiling in their respective fields. (Victoria Q Paraggua & Ma Nissa C Espiritu,

Ellen E Luna, 2022).

In the municipality of Gonzaga Cagayan, traditionally male-dominated

industries have become increasingly open to women working in these fields. Women

make up a large portion of the successful leaders and employees in Gonzaga’s male-

dominated fields, including lawyers, architects, legislators, and many other

professions. But as they tried to enter such fields, these women ran against

prejudices and obstacles including a lack of assistance, cruel treatment,

discreditation, and many more. But because of the people who hold onto the idea of

gender equality specially in workplace there is the implementation of the RA 6725

an act strengthening the prohibition on discrimination against women with respect to

terms and conditions of employment. This gives women a position in society,

especially in fields where males predominate. Women will be given the chance to

demonstrate their abilities, dispel misconceptions, and remove historical obstacles as

a result of this.

But still, hindrance will not be avoided in this type of industries. But by

overcoming these obstacles and achieving success in their jobs, women in these

fields demonstrate resilience. They can do this by searching for great female role

models, speaking for oneself, and forming supportive networks (Sian Beilock,

2019). Employers can also take initiatives to promote women in the workplace as

well, such as giving mentorship and leadership possibilities (Sian Beilock, 2019).

This shows that women develop resilience and strategies in order to survive and

navigate career in male-dominated industries.

Women of Gonzaga in male-dominated would play a vital role in our

research because they have all the experiences we need. These women that have

been in the game for many years and already proven themselves as worthy and that

they’ve created a lot of doors for other women to also take these careers that are

dominated by men. These women that have come up with career advancement

strategies can give us insights us to how and why did they come up with such

strategies which may not be expected by the society in the recent years. So, the

women of Gonzaga in male-dominated industries would be giving us the

opportunity to know more about what’s happening inside these jobs and that we will

be getting enough information to come up with a conclusion in which it can help our

locality and also future researchers to also come up with more issues regarding these

topics which can improve more the gender equality not just in male-dominated

industries but patriarchy in general.

those strategies in order to understand their experiences and their plans in having a

successful career in fields with male majority. And there is a need to conduct this

study to help us identify the challenges women faced in male-dominated industries

in Gonzaga and how did they come up with career advancement strategies in this

fields. This study also aims to utilize the career advancement strategies of the

women, how they break stereotypes, and how they overcome barriers in order to

help more women to feel empowered because the main goal of this research is to

create a paper to empower and to help our women not just in our local but around

the world.

impact women's career outcomes in male-dominated industries.

Women in Gonzaga navigating career advancement strategies in Male-

Dominated Industries is the cause of Women's success in such industries, navigating

strategies is crucial because it plans how this study leads to the success of Women in

Male-Dominated Industries and how Women overcome the barriers they have faced.

in male-dominated industries, the strategies of successful women in male-dominated

industries can provide valuable insights into how to succeed in these challenging

environments, these strategies may include developing a strong support network,

cultivating resilience, building strong professional relationships, and staying true to

oneself.

It is considered a Women's success when they have successfully broken

down the stereotypes that young women may experience in the future, it is also

considered a success once they overcome the barriers. The barriers we may

encounter may include gender bias, discrimination, lack of female role models,

workplace culture, lack of flexibility, and promotion inequity. Stereotypes can create

artificial barriers that prevent individuals from realizing their full potential,

biases, by addressing these biases we can ensure that everyone has an equal chance

to succeed based on their abilities. By successfully performing the mentioned

strategies it is expected that this can lead to better collaboration, communication,

and teamwork, which can improve productivity and job satisfaction. There's an

ability of women to helm or navigate career advancement strategies to help them

work in Male-Dominated Industries which is not easy, navigating career

advancement strategies can be the instrument for women's success by breaking

Developing advancement strategies customized exclusively to women can

assist in addressing the gender inequality that exists in male-dominated industries.

Women face unique challenges and barriers to advancement in these industries, such

as unconscious bias, limited networking opportunities, and a lack of female role

models. Helming advancement strategies for women's success in male-dominated

industries can involve a range of initiatives, including mentoring programs,

leadership development opportunities, flexible work arrangements, and policies that

promote work-life balance. These strategies can help women build strong networks,

gain access to decision-makers, and develop the skills and experience necessary for

advancement. In addition, promoting diversity and inclusion in the workplace can

help to create a more welcoming environment for women and other

underrepresented groups. This can include efforts to combat sexism, racism, and

other forms of discrimination, as well as initiatives to promote cultural awareness

and sensitivity. Moreover, helming advancement strategies for women's success in

male-dominated industries is not only good for gender equity, but it can also lead to

improved business outcomes. Research has shown that companies with more varied
