Major Issues Faced By Women in the Workplace: A case of Cameroon.

      Аннотация: Traditionally, women were not allowed to go to school; instead, they were prepared to be house’s wives at an early teenage age. Nowadays, things have changed and women can even have a job. As these women enter the workplace, they face several barriers due to their gender and are put at disadvantage compare to men. This research identifies the most significant issues faced by women in the workplace in Cameroon and their effects on female performance at work. Furthermore, the paper suggests mutually beneficial ways for Human Resource professionals to eventually create a workplace where fairness and equality are a reality. By addressing these issues, it will help increase women participation and productivity in the workplace with an impact on the country overall economy. Our target group is working professionals and Human Resource practitioners in the working environment.
