Abstract

Gender equality is critical for communities, nations, and organisations to thrive. Organisations that envision a workplace where everyone has an equal chance, their safety and security are assured, and they are treated fairly, enjoy employee retention and higher performance. Perception of discrimination is important for some individuals who protest against some forms of discrimination so they can establish some kind of collective actions as it has been seen so far with some minority groups. This chapter adopts the review approach in conceptualising gender discrimination in the Bahrain banking sector. An integrative review technique was chosen because the current study intends to access, analyse, and synthesise the gender discrimination literature in order to provide an overview of the gender discrimination knowledge. To improve employee job satisfaction and improved performance, this chapter recommends that management should make a concerted effort not to let the concept of gender discrimination intrude into policies such as recruiting, promotion, and appointment to higher offices or positions.
