Women and men equal opportunities and gender equality is not a fully realized in Lithuania and in many other countries. There is still a very large gap between men's and women's wages. Up to these days exist stereotypical attitude to the role of women in the family. Because of this it is more difficult to integrate women into the labor market. Society is little informed of gender equality and access issues, and others. The main reason - the lack of effective mechanisms to ensure effective implementation of gender equality policy. According to sociologists, in Lithuania there is age discrimination and because of that for women, particularly older, is much more difficult to find even a minimum-paid job. Therefore, one way to reduce unemployment, may be starting their own business. In this case, business becomes as a tool to achieve the economic independence for women.
