Anna and Elena commented on:

  • Measures to ensure that women are able to combine family responsibilities, study and work;

  • Measures to increasing opportunities for women to assume leadership positions;

  • The prohibition on denying candidates employment or promotion opportunities based solely on their gender or marital status.

They emphasize that the list of professions to which women may not be admitted should not regarded as fixed, but should rather be regularly reviewed and modified in light of the latest medical research and changes in specific fields of work, including the increased use of digital technologies.
