Abstract and Keywords
This chapter describes how the gender relations that are present in the globalization process do not reflect the neutral practice presented in the literature, but instead represent a gendered phenomenon that promotes new arrangements of inequalities that impact supply chain management. For decades, gender inequity in supply chains was a “hidden” problem in several sectors, but in the early twenty-first century it is an overt challenge for supply chain management. Gender inequity exists in supply chains when there is low participation of women-owned businesses in supply, a clear wage inequity along the supply chain, and the identification of modern slavery or forced labor related to gender in any tier of a supply chain. A future agenda for gender issues in supply chains should address a range of issues, from the increase in the number of women-owned suppliers and its impacts, to equalization of income among genders throughout supply chains, to complete eradication of modern slavery in local and global supply chains.
Keywords: gender inequity, socially responsible purchase, women-owned business, wage inequity, modern slavery
