过度的官僚作风、行政管理和频繁的立法变更是阻碍人们进入商界的共同因素。本文件的主要目的是介绍科学证据，证明性别是对公司行政管理活动具有重大影响的因素之一，并影响人们对诸如官僚作风以及税收和立法改革等行政负担的看法，认为这是斯洛伐克商业环境中年轻企业家的障碍之一。根据所获得的研究数据，我们希望确认，性别对斯洛伐克年轻企业家履行行政和官僚要求所花费的时间有统计上的重大影响。我们认为关于行政负担的研究结果很重要，因为我们假设过度的官僚作风可能会对每个经济体的竞争力产生负面影响。论文使用的数据来自与斯洛伐克青年企业家协会合作在斯洛伐克进行的研究。通过皮尔逊卡方检验的统计方法实现对备选工作假设的验证或否定。我们的结果得出了以下发现：年轻男性和女性认为不同领域的官僚机构过多；女性企业家花更多的时间观察影响商业环境的立法变化，女性花在与商业相关的行政活动上的时间几乎是男性企业家的两倍。这些发现得到了统计证据的证实。
Excessive bureaucracy, administration, and frequent legislative changes belong among the common factors that discourage people from entering the world of business. The main objective of this paper is to introduce scientific evidence that gender is one of the factors with a significant impact on the management of a company’s administrative activities and on the perception of such administrative burdens as bureaucracy and, often, tax and legislative changes as one of the barriers to young entrepreneurs in the Slovak business environment. On the basis of the research data that was obtained, we wish to confirm that gender has a statistically significant impact on the amount of time spent fulfilling the administrative and bureaucratic requirements among young entrepreneurs in Slovakia. We consider the findings of the research on administrative burdens to be important because of the assumption that excessive bureaucracy could have a negative impact on the competitiveness of every economy. The paper uses data from research carried out in Slovakia in cooperation with the Association of Young Entrepreneurs of Slovakia. Verification or rejection of alternative working hypothesis was realized through the statistical method of Pearson’s chi-square test. Our results bring the following findings: young men and women consider different areas of the bureaucracy to be excessive; female entrepreneurs spend more time watching the changes in legislation affecting the business environment, and females spend almost twice as much time on administrative activities related to business in comparison to their male counterparts. These findings are confirmed by the statistical evidence.
