As the proportion of women in the workforceincreases, gender-based differences in workforce participation are raising important planning questions. For example,how will differences in hours worked per week impact on the number of trainee doctors required to meet futuredemand, why do some disciplines attract more women, what will be the impact on the practice of medicine if thesetrends continue and how does the training environment impact on variation in career decision.
