10件職場女性遭遇的心酸事(2)

　　6.Disproportionate Stress Levels

　　6.不相稱的壓力等級

　　Work can be quite stressful at times, and it’s women who bear the brunt of work-related stress. More women than men report feeling stressed at work, which affects health and emotional well-being, according to an American Psychological Association survey. Thankfully, women are also becoming more empowered when it comes to calling for flexibility and ways to tame the stress.

　　工作壓力有時會喪病地找上門來，首當其沖受到蹂躪的就是女性。美國心理學會一項調查稱，更多的女性認為自己在工作中壓力大，而且這影響到她們的身心健康。因禍得福的是，女性也變得越來越有能力靈活應對，學會如何制服壓力。

　　7.Discrimination Still Exists

　　7.歧視依舊在

　　Although we wish gender discrimination is a thing of the past, unfortunately, this isn’t the case. Discrimination still affects women in the work world, in many subtle ways. Attitudes of male coworkers towards their female peers, treatment of female compared to male subordinates by male managers, and the stigma that accompanies a working Mom. These things can make the workplace a frustrating rather than a liberating place.

　　盡管我們希望性別歧視已經是過去式，但很不幸的是它現(xiàn)在還存在于職場。歧視以一種微妙的姿態(tài)影響著職業(yè)女性。男同事對女同事的態(tài)度，男經理對男女下屬的區(qū)別對待，職業(yè)媽媽的心理負擔......這些事情都讓職場變得不再自由，反到令人沮喪。

　　8.Concrete Ceiling

　　8.在“男人行當”難以突破自我

　　We’ve all heard of that glass ceiling, but there is another one that has also been tough to crack. Women are still having trouble breaking into traditionally male-dominated fields such as construction or plumbing. Perhaps if we familiarize ourselves with technology or other methods of getting to know these industries, more women will get involved in these professions.

　　我們都聽說過打破職場玻璃頂?shù)氖虑�，然而還有一道界限仍是難以攻破的。女性無法像傳統(tǒng)的“男人行當”發(fā)展，例如建筑和管道工程�？赡苤挥挟斘覀兡軌蛴眉夹g和科學武裝自己融入這一領域時，更多的女性才能從事這類職業(yè)。

　　9.Day Care Dilemma

　　照顧娃的煩惱

　　Although many women choose to become mothers and continue to work, most companies do not provide day care services or even offer reimbursement for the cost. As a result, families are forced to spend a good part of their paychecks on child care, which can make working feel pointless. In addition, it’s often the mother who chooses to stay home in these situations.

　　雖然很多媽媽決定做回職場女性，大多數(shù)的公司還是沒有提供日護服務或是其報銷業(yè)務。這就導致家庭為孩子開銷太大，讓媽媽們情何以堪。而且，一般都是媽媽選擇辭職在家照顧寶寶。

　　10.Flex Time Is Too Rigid

　　彈性時間沒有彈性

　　In 1980, the movie “9 to 5” introduced us to the concept of flex time, but it has not taken off as a trend. Only about half of U.S. companies offer some sort of flexible arrangement. In addition, a recent study has found that most companies grant flex time to senior-level men rather than women, which is surprising given the fact that it’s women who need more flexibility in order to care for children.

　　在1980年，電影“朝九晚五”給我們描繪了所謂彈性時間的畫面，但這個到現(xiàn)在也沒有真正成為主流。僅有大約一半的美國公司為員工提供這樣的彈性時間安排。另外，一項最近的研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，大部分的公司為高級雇員提供的彈性時間里，男性雇員的時長大于女性，但事實上，女性才是更加需要這樣的彈性時間去照顧自己孩子的。

　　As you can see, working women may not have come as far as we thought. This means we need to keep pushing politicians and business leaders for change and continue to keep these workplace discrepancies in the spotlight.

　　如你所見，職場女性這么多年來也沒見得過了多少好日子。這就意味著政客與商業(yè)領導人們應一直重視，并改變這樣的職場歧視。
