Suffer from three types of exclusion: social, legal and economic. Despite improvements in some countries, nowhere in the world are offered the same opportunities as men, are thus marginalized. Women work more hours than men, but most of their work is unpaid. Some of the problems affecting women in Spain is the inequality of salaries between men and women who occupy the same positions like this is the focus point where the protests of trade unions. Charge women an average 30% less than men. The unemployment rate for women doubled the male. According to the CCOO the wage gap is because women work in lower paid sectors, because the majority of workers are young. Equal opportunities between women and men is seen as a basic principle of democracy and human respect. Recognized the principle of equal pay, and a coherent set of laws to ensure equal access to work. In the late nineteenth century created a series of specific measures to promote equal opportunities for women and men in subsequent actions for equal opportunities. These measures have been isolated and specific The implementation of the rights of equality: Parental leave at least three months in principle not transferable to the other parent.

With the European Union and equal opportunities between women and men is now a political priority which has been supported by a variety of important developments in recent years. Equality is being promoted. The twentieth century was the century of women, women who began without even having the right to vote in democratic regimes. It has also been active incorporation of women into working life, political participation and public decisions. The main problem for women is unemployment.

The danger is not seeing that equality is still lacking, there is still no freedom, where young people filled the universities, which have as many women as men at work, the girls draw top marks for children that does not mean that we have full equality, not all achieved. What remains to be done is to change habits for the recognition of perfect equality, full. Making the hidden work, which has always been something of women, stop it. Realize that work is socially important, necessary and profitable as it is paid a salary.
