CROSS-CULTURAL RESEARCH ON BARRIERS TO CAREER DEVELOPMENT OF WOMEN IN BULGARIA AND POLAND

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the present research is to identify and compare those factors which hinder career development of women in Bulgaria and Poland. Reasons, which cause problems to career development are described in the literature as barriers or constrains at individual, family, organizational and social levels. Transition in the Eastern European countries from centralized planning to market economy has a strong effect on work status of women and put to the test their professional development. In spite of these common trends in contemporary situation in Bulgaria and Poland, we expected some cross-cultural differences in perception and assessment of different types of barriers to finding a job and career advancement, caused by the historical and cultural specificity and specific conditions of political and economic transitions in both countries.
