The only thing is that this is NOT what she said.
She did not say there were too many males, but that there were not enough females. An entirely different point.

Ian is a conman, however, she's saying the rail services should find ways to attract different people not bemoaning white men having jobs. I got my first job here from an international advert, was that a racist or sexist advert?

Not sure what the issue is with men's clubs. It is funny to see famous people in these clubs act shocked no women were allowed.

As with any other job, if women don't want to apply no amount of 'diversity' posturing will make a woman apply.Sunbeam Alpine wrote: ↑Wed May 01, 2024 9:31 am The only thing is that this is NOT what she said.

It's just hot air and trying to justify her existance.

Not enough females bollocks. The criteria should be when selecting employees for positions is a follows.
The best person.
Irrelevant are
Colour of skin, age, sex, whether you have a cock or not, and you want to be a man or a woman.
If that means 90% are LGTBQ so be it
If that means none are, again so be it.
Heads of Talent, Diversity and Inclusion, have a role, but only to encourage and support, not demand that there are more of any particular gender etc.

Re: Woke
So you want to dig yourself deeper.
OK
Like many employers, I imagine she would like to see interest in jobs from across society. For the primary reason, which you espouse, of finding the best people. But if people who could be the best don't apply, everybody has lost.
There is nothing in her statement about lowering standards to appoint women. In fact it may be that standards are not what she would like amongst current applicants. We know that for the last ten years or so girls leaving school are likely to be more numerate and literate than their male peers.
Who you encourage applications from, and who you appoint, are two different things.
Yet another twisted social media post to excite the hard of thinking. And it worked.

Re: Woke
Could the reason for wanting women to apply be that the calibre of men applying is wanting?

Re: Woke
Is my point.
We have the same fallacy when police try to increase applications from minorities.

As far as I am aware there are no restrictions as to who can apply for any particular job, just look at the motley crew in Parliament, some of them I wouldn't trust to look after next door's cat let alone the welfare of the country.
That someone bemoans that a particular job is mainly male and looks to encourage women to apply is just plain daft, there is, as far as I know, no reason why women shouldn't apply, the fact that they don't is nothing to do with the job.
There doesn't seem to be a reason why women don't apply to work in refuse collection, but they don't seem to, and there is also, as far as I can see, no reason why Asians don't either, at least not on the truck which collects my bin, but there are some black faces, again, I wonder why.
As I have said, most jobs are open to both sexes, and, apart from qualifications which apply, there doesn't seem to be a reason why they don't.

Re: Woke
Many years ago the local press printed an article about a highways cleansing operative In Potters Bar who, apparently, was lauded by the locals for the diligent way this person carried out their duty, leaving the highway cleaner than the locals had seen for ears, with a smile, a cheery word and even occasionally stopping the traffic to allow elderly person to cross the road.
Now, why was this newsworthy, you may ask, no reason except the the cleansing operative was a lass about 20 years old.

It's interesting how more female bus drivers you see now.
But I don't recall seeing female train drivers.

Saw a report on the news yesterday (could have been Monday) that one reason that housebuilding targets are not being met is the lack of bricklayers, (yeah, yeah, stop sniggering at the back.) so some FE C is training girls in the trade.
I wonder if they will go bare chested in the hot weather.
