Employment rate of men and women 2004–2014

According to recent Eurostat statistics, in 2014, the EU-28 employment rate for men was still higher (70.1%) than that for women (59.6%). A longer-term comparison shows, however, that while the employment rate for men in 2014 was lower than ten years earlier (70.3% in 2004), there was a noticeable increase in the rate of employment of women (a rise of 4.1% from 55.5% in 2004).
