Austria has a new record. More women work in the boards of big firms. The share is now 15,3 percent. A study shows this. The firm EY makes the study. 190 people work in all boards. 29 people are women.
Change is very slow. Many firms have no woman in the board. Only men work there. The councils look better. Every third person is a woman. New laws help here. The laws give clear rules.
A woman leads a big firm now. Emma Delaney leads the firm OMV. This is a good sign for business. Experts say: Firms must help women. Only then do all people have the same rights.
