尽管女性在酒店业劳动力市场的人数越来越多，但经验证据表明，持续存在的横向和纵向隔离以及工资差距--这种情况使该行业失去的机会永久化。本文以芭芭拉·里斯曼的性别社会结构模型为主要参考，为酒店业提供了一种基于性别的方法。里斯曼的三个层次(个人、互动和制度)的分析是以一个交叉的层次完成的，符合“酒店业性别作为一种社会结构”的模型。该模型旨在找出导致女性高管歧视的因素。该方法基于对西班牙酒店业女性高管的30次半结构化深度采访。结果表明，自我设置的障碍、性别角色、工作-生活调解相关问题以及性别组织相关问题的影响是阻碍实现性别平等的主要因素。
Despite the increasing presence of women in the hospitality labour market, empirical evidence shows persistent horizontal and vertical segregation, as well as a pay gap - a situation that perpetuates lost opportunities for the industry. Based on Barbara Risman’s model “Gender as a Social Structure” as a leading reference, the paper provides a gender based approach for the hospitality industry. Risman’s three levels of analysis (Individual, Interactional and Institutional) are completed with an Intersectional level, conforming the “Gender as a Social Structure in the Hospitality Industry” model. This model aims at identifying factors that cause discrimination among female executives. The methodology is based on thirty semi-structured in-depth interviews with female executives in the Spanish hospitality industry. The results show that the influence of self-imposed barriers, gender roles, problems associated with work-life conciliation and issues related to gendered organizations are the main factors that hinder achieving gender equality.
