Women Orientation Program for the Insertion in the Labour Market: From Epistemological Basics to Social Transformation

This manuscript shows the importance of the theoretical feminist corpus within employment orientation itineraries. Since the end of the 90's orientation programs are being implemented whose objective is to promote the participation in the labour market and to drive their professional careers. These performances are put in place as corrective measures at the obstacles women find at the beginning and during their careers paths. Those actions are called "With gender perspective" in order to meaning them and to be distinguished from those who don't have that compensatory character. What value does gender perspective add to these insertion itineraries? These processes training seek social transformation, reducing the labor market participation gender gap respect to employment, incorporating in an innovative way the epistemological foundations of feminist critical theory that will be presented throughout this article.
