Abstract/Summary
This descriptive study compared the prevalent stereotypes in two banking institutions: Pinoy Bank and Euro Bank. Using key-informant interviews, the researchers highlighted how women are affected by stereotyping, especially in the interplay of work-family life. A number of discriminatory practices in the workplace were also identified in the study, and these were generally linked to the common view of women as mothers, homemakers and nurturers. However, the researchers found that the issue of domesticity (roles related to household management) is more dominant in Pinoy Bank evidence that culture, indeed, has an influential role to play in societal views of gender and gender roles.
