Vejledning for kvinder, der vil arbejde i udlandet
In its resolution, Parlia­ment supported her call for the creation of a senior­level steering group to fix perfor­mance objectives, advise on implementation and monitor progress.
Ifølge en rapport fra EU's statistiske kon­tor, Eurostat1, blev der i EU­landene født over 4 millioner børn i 1996 mod lidt un­der 4 millioner i 1995.
Over four million babies were born in the European Union in 1996 compared to just under four million in 1995, according to a report by Eurostat1, the EU statistics office.
Tallet har i nogle år været faldende, hvilket navnlig skyldes den højere gennemsnitsalder blandt førstegangs­fødende og det stigende antal barnløse kvinder.
After years of decline, due mainly to post­poned motherhood and increasing child­lessness, the EU's total fertility rate (average number of live births per woman) stopped falling in 1996.
Men i 1996 vendte faldet i Unio­nens samlede fødselstal (middeltallet af le­vendefødte børn pr. kvinde) og steg til 1,44 barn pr. kvinde mod 1,43 i 1995 ­ efter­krigstidens laveste antal.
In that year, 1.44 babies per woman were recorded against 1.43 in 1995, the lowest in the post­war period.
Europastat afslører tillige, at den gennemsnitlige levetid nu er rekordhøjt, nemlig 80,5 år for kvinder og 74 år for mænd.
Eurostat also revealed that life expectancy reached an all­time high of 80.5 years for women and 74 years for men.
EF­Domstolen afsagde for nylig en ken­delse til fordel for den deltidsansatte Brigit­te Kording mod Bremens kommunale skat­temyndigheder.
In a recent ruling, the European Court of Justice backed the case of part­time worker Brigitte Kording against the city of Bre­men's finance department.
Hun ønskede at blive selv­stændig skatterådgiver og havde bedt sin ar­bejdsgiver om en attest, der kunne fritage hende for den normale adgangseksamen til faget.
Brigitte Kording wanted to become an independent tax con­sultant and asked her employer for a refer­ence stating she was exempt from the en­trance exam because of her years of experi­ence.
Arbejdsgiveren erkendte, at Brigitte Kording opfyldte adgangsbetingelserne, men han påstod, at hun på grund af sin del­tidsansættelse ikke kunne hævde at have de 15 års arbejdserfaring, som var kravet for at blive fritaget for prøven.
Her employer agreed that she met the criteria for entrance into the profession but argued that the fact she had worked part­time meant she had not fulfilled the mini­mum 15 full years required for exemption.
Domstolen fastslår i sin kendelse, at en sådan ordning stiller del­tidsansatte ringere end fuldtidsansatte.
In its judgement, the Court said this provi­sion put part­time workers in a less favourable position than their full­time counterparts.
Efter­som 92,4% af deltidspersonalet ved skatte­væsenet i Bremen er kvinder, er den indan­kede regel diskriminerende og derfor i strid med ligebehandlingsdirektivet fra 1976.·
As 92.4% of civil servants working part­time in Bremen's finance de­partment were women, the rule was tanta­mount to discrimination and was contrary to the 1976 equal treatment directive. ·
Integrering af kønsaspektet i udviklingssamarbejde
The guide is published by the CNIDFF, the French national centre for information and documentation for women and families, with the support of the EU Employment Initiative.
I endnu en rapport2noterer Eurostat, at antallet af indgåede ægteskaber i hele EU er faldet fra 8 promille af indbyggerne pr. år i begyndelsen af 70'erne til kun 5,1 promille pr. år i 1995.
It provides practical information on residency conditions, lan­guage learning, access to training, job­seek­ing, resources and the institutional set up in each of the countries.
Den stærkeste tilbagegang er konstateret i Irland (fra 7,3 til 4,4), Finland (fra 7,9 til 4,6), Holland (fra 8,7 til 5,3) og Frankrig (fra 7,8 til 4,4).
It also contains factu­al information on free movement within the EU, measures to support mobility and equal opportunities and the conditions re­quired to obtain unemployment benefits in these four Member States. ·
Også skilsmissepro­centen har nået rekordhøjder.
In a separate report2, Eurostat noted an EU­wide decline in the number of mar­riages from nearly eight per 1,000 inhabi­tants in the early 1970s to just 5.1 per 1,000 in 1995.
I EU­landene er 14% af de ægteskaber, der blev indgået i 1960, endt med skilsmisse, mens det samme gælder for 22% af ægteskaber indgået i 70'erne og 27% for 80'ernes vedkommen­de.
The biggest falls were in Ireland (7.3 to 4.4), Finland (7.9 to 4.6), the Netherlands (8.7 to 5.3) and France (7.8 to 4.4). Divorce was also at a record high.
Ægtestanden har det værst i Belgien og i Sverige, hvor over halvdelen af de gifte par ender med at blive skilt.
Of Europeans married in 1960, 14% ended in divorce, rising to 22% for those who mar­ried in the 1970s and 27% in the 1980s.
De gennemsnitligt mest holdbare giftermål ses i Italien, hvor under 10% af ægteskaberne opløses ved skilsmisse.
Marriages are most at risk in Belgium and Sweden where more than half of couples divorce and most stable in Italy where di­vorce affects less than one in 10 couples.The report warned that traditional statistics on marriage and divorce are an increasingly in­adequate measure of social trends because more women and men are living together and not marrying and are therefore not cov­ered by these statistics. ·
"Udviklingslandenes kvinder lever stadig i en anden verden end deres mænd, selv når de deler bord og seng", mener Europa­par­lamentariker Karin Junker (PSE, Tyskland). Hun står som referent for et forslag fra Kommissionen vedrørende Rådets forord­ning om at integrere kønsaspektet i samar­bejdet til fordel for udviklingslande.
Even when "they share bed and board", women and men in developing countries "still inhabit different worlds," according to MEP Karin Junker (PSE, Germany), report­ing on a Commission proposal for a Coun­cil Regulation on integrating gender into development cooperation.
Parlamentet slut­ter i sin resolution op om Karin Junker, der henstiller om, at man nedsætter en "orienterings­gruppe" af højt­stående ledere.
Although she welcomed the proposal as "an important step in the right direction" she said it did not go far enough.
Deres opgave skulle være at fastlægge målsæt­ninger, at rådgive omkring iværk­sættelsen og at overvåge udvik­lingen.

"Mainstreaming" - et gennemgribende, nyt islæt af ligestilling indenfor strukturfondene

Mainstreaming­princippet vil pá væsent­lig vis forandre måden, hvorpå fremtidens strukturfondsprogrammer udarbejdes og fremlægges.
Pay differentials between the sexes remain virtually unchanged, paralleled by the continued pattern of segregation in the labour market with many working women concentrated in lower-paid levels and in certain economic branches.

Official unemployment levels are higher tor women than men in the vast majority of Member States, and women form the majority of the poor.

Kommissionen har nemlig vedtaget at tackle konnenes ulige situation på en ny måde, som blandt andet lover godt for en fuldstændig nyorientering af strukturfonde­ne efter 1999.
A new approach to tackling the inequalities between women and men has been agreed by the Commission, which promises to bring, among other things, a radical new orientation to the Structural Funds after 1999.
Med den nye tilgang, der kal­des "mainstreaming", kastes der et vidt­spændende blik på årsagerne til manglende ligestilling. Det logiske resultat er en meget grundigere måde at gribe problemerne an på.
Called "mainstreaming", the approach takes a wide-ranging view on the causes of gender inequality - and a consequently tar more thorough approach to its cures.
Fremover skal strukturfondene bruges til andet end finansiering af særskilte kvinde­sagsinitiativer.
In the future, Structural Fund programmes will have to do much more than finance specific initiatives for women.
Den Europæiske Socialfond har en specifik, politisk målsætning om at styrke kvindedeltagelsen på arbejdsmarke­det, men det skal også sikres, at ligestillingen vinder indpas på alle andre punkter i til­knytning til Socialfonden.
In addition to the specific European Social Fund policy objective of improving the participation of women in the labour market, the aim is to ensure that throughout the Funds, attention is paid to equal opportunities is sues.
Som en torud­sætning for Kommissionens godkendelse af strukturfondsprogrammerne forventes disse at indeholde en klar redegørelse for, hvor­dan man agter at fremme konnenes ligestil­ling.

Improved conciliation of work and per sonal lite tor women and men is also seen as a key element.
Stötte til pasning at born og andre afhængi­ge pårorende kan i forening med en bedre tilrettelæggelse af arbejdstiden i boj grad fremme kvinders deltagelse pa arbejdsmar­kedet.
Support for childcare and for the care of dependents and improved organisation of working time can make a major impact on women's participation in the labour market.
Det er sket ud fra den opfattelse, at kvinders pro­blemer med at konkurrere jævnbyrdigt med mænd på arbejdsmarkedet kunne loses gen­nem en kombination at lovpåbud og "posi­tiv særbehandling" for at imødekomme kvinders særlige behov.
As a result, it is difficult to say how equal opportunities issues have been dealt with in the framework of the Structural Funds.
Men, hvor den uli­gelige tordeling at byrderne med pasning at hjem og familie er til ulempe for erhvervs­aktive kvinder, er den til tordel for mænd.
This time I am determined to ensure that equal opportunities for women and men should be addressed right across the Structural Fund programmes and initiatives - including those which support infrastructure projects, in dustrial reconversion and agricultural support measures.
Denne omstændighed er tilbøjelig til at for­værre forskelsbehandlingen pa beskæftigel­sessiden.
This will require systematic monitoring of equal opportunities, with collection of appropriate statistics.
De uve bestemmelser vil sikre, at der tages hensyn til kønsaspektet inden for en række torskellige programmer og initiativer. '
For example, the new Regulations recommend the balanced participation of men and women on monitoring committees.
Her i Europas Kvinder Nyhedsbrev vil vi i løbet af de kommende måneder fortsat beskæftige os indgående med emner af afgørende betydning for Den Europæiske Union og dens fremtidige udvik­ling, set i lyset af begivenhedernes konsekvenser for kvinder.
Over the coming months, the Women of Eu rope newsletters will continue to examine issues of paramount importance to the European Union and its future development in the light of their impact on women.With the aim of better informing our readers and to widen the debate, we are inviting prominent personalities to give their views and to write editorials.

Crucial areas ignored com ni 1 ssi on "Piecemeal" progress in some fields structural funds
Nye reformer præget af Ugestillingstanken luropa­Kommissionen vedtog i marts sin første beretning til opfølgning af meddelelsen
Equal opportunities central to reforms radical revamp of the EU's fund­ing system for regional and lo­cal development, the Structural he European Commission adopted in March the first follow­up report to its 1996 Com­munication "Incorporating equal opportunities for women and men into all Commu­nity policies and activities" (Com (96) 67). In this Communication, the Commission
E lring af regional og lokal udvik­
Despite progress in these fields, the report remained critical.
Til trods for fremgangen i førnævnte henseender er beretningen dog alligevel kri­tisk.
The Information Society, European Monetary Union (EMU), the single market and enlargement of the Union were some of the crucial policy areas which remained untouched by the policy of mainstreaming.
Disse akti­viteter skaber heller ingen større udfordring for orienteringen af de generelle fælles­skabspolitikker".
It also urged a "coherent" gender approach to the implementation of the 5tnaction pro­gramme on research and technological de­velopment.

committed itself to take into account the respective priorities and needs of both women and men into all Community policies and activities from the earliest planning stage.
Man taler i den forbindelse om mainstreaming af ligestillingsprincippet.
This is what is known as gender mainstreaming.
Men Kommissionen fastslår i den nye beretning, at visse tjeneste­grene og politiske sektorer er "forblevet urørt", selv om der er sket "betydelige" fremskridt i gennemførelsen af mainstreaming­politikken.
Two years later, although "considerable" progress has been made in implementing this policy, certain services and policy sectors "remained untouched", the report found.
Dette er første led i gennemførelsen af de reformer, som i hovedtræk står be­skrevet i meddelelsen "Agenda 2000" fra juli 1997 (se Nyhedsbrev nr. 74).
These were a lack of awareness of gender issues at decision­making levels, a lack of human and budgetary resources giv­en to mainstreaming and a lack of gender expertise.
Li­gestillingen står centralt i de foreslåe­de reformer af strukturfondene og Den Europæiske Socialfond (ESF).
Another major obstacle was the lack of "high­level backing" within the Commission services.
Der blev indkredset tre væsentlige hin­dringer for fremskridtet, nemlig: manglende bevidsthed om kønsaspektet på beslutnings­niveau, manglende personale­ og pengebe­villinger til mainstreamingarbejdet og man­gelen på sagkundskab i ligestillingsanliggen­der.
Funds, is at the heart of proposals adopted by the European Commis­sion in March as the first step to im­plement the reforms outlined in the July 1997 "Agenda 2000" communica­tion (see Newsletter No 74).
Endnu en alvorlig hæmsko var den manglende "opbakning på lederniveau" in­den for Kommissionens tjenestegrene.
Equal op­portunities are central to the pro­posed reforms to the Structural Funds and the European Social Fund (ESF).
Til økonomisk og social omstilling i egne og bydele, der lider under strukturelle van­skeligheder (også i de mere velhavende medlemsstater), vil der kunne tildeles støtte under det nye Mål 2.
The economic and social reconversion of areas experiencing structural difficulties, in­cluding those in wealthier Member States, will be eligible for support under the new Objective 2.
Til denne kategori hører regioner, hvis industri­, service­ og fi­skerisektorer er ramt af tilbagegang, landdi­strikter, der er plaget af afvandring og andre alvorlige problemer, samt forfordelte stor­bykvarterer.
These include areas facing de­cline in industry, the services and fisheries sectors; rural zones confronted with serious problems such as depopulation as well as de­prived inner city areas.
18% af EU­befolkningen vil nyde godt af Mål 2­støtten.
Support from Ob­jective 2 will benefit 18% of the European population.
I beretningen efterlyses også en vurdering af den fælles mønts indvirkning, set ud fra et ligestillingssynspunkt. Hensigten hermed er at sikre, at overgangen til ØMU'en ikke skal stille kvinder ringere.
The report called for an assessment of the impact of the Euro on gender to avoid a sit­uation where the transition to EMU affect­ed women adversely.
Unionsudvidelsens li­gestillingsmæssige konsekvenser bør også undersøges mere systematisk.
The impact of enlarge­ment in terms of equality also needed to be addressed more systematically.
Ifølge beret­ningen skal Unionens ligestillingslovgivning i sin helhed integreres i ansøgerlandenes strategier forud for optagelsen, og kønnenes ligestilling gøres til "et udtrykkeligt anlig­gende i de centrale forhandlinger". ·
It said the full body of EU equality law must be incorpo­rated in the pre­accession strategies of the candidate countries and equality between women and men made "an explicit issue of the core proposals". ·

Kommissionen ønsker, at den nye forord­ning om strukturfondene skal indeholde en forpligtelse "til at gøre en vedvarende, uddy­bet og målrettet indsats for at integrere prin­cippet om kønnenes ligestilling i de tiltag, der stöttes af strukturfondene".
The Commission wants to insert in the new Structural Fund regulation a commit­ment "to make a continued, deepened and determined effort to mainstream the princi­ple of equal opportunities for women and men into operations supported by the Structural Funds."
