Abstract

The essay considers the evolution of women's protection at work in relation to the increasing use of fixed term contracts, thereby questioning the flexicurity model. Problems related to the application of the principle of equality of treatment and the prohibition of gender discrimination will be particularly taken into consideration. At the same time, interpretative potentialities, which emerge in the context of remuneration and trends towards the stabilization of the employment relation, will be analyzed. In the conclusion, the Author considers the last reforms about equality and prohibition of gender discrimination, which, however, have not yet provided adequate and efficient solutions to the examined questions.
