Abstract

The paper analyzes the state of the art of career opportunities policy in Russia, which is based on polling almost 1,500 respondents. The goal is to identify the career opportunities with breakdown by gender, age, presence or absence of disabilities, ethnicity, and religion. The paper proposes ways to improve career equality and to address the barriers to the in-house growth of personnel of analyzed categories. It analyzes the techniques and tools international and Russian companies employ to prevent bias against job candidates; the key performance indicators for implementing the career policy; employees’ and employers’ attitude towards the policy. The paper substantiates the need for a Russia-wide policy of equality, a policy that will provide equal career opportunities and fair pay regardless of religion, age (especially for persons aged 50 or more), physical impairments (disability), ethnicity, and sexual orientation. The advantages the policy will bring are the synergy of unequally experienced employees in terms of thinking and value paradigms; a boosted culture of support and mutual help; more creative solutions; opportunities to work with a more diverse clientele; entry into international markets; and better financial performance.
