Throughout the years, there has been a considerable amount of research dedicated to investigating the involvement of women in the maritime sector. The present study focuses its interest on female employees working in the Greek Maritime Industry. The main objective of this research study is to examine the role of women in the Greek maritime sector, concentrating on their experiences, obstacles, and prospects for progress. This objective was pursued by conducting a survey involving a sample of 80 female participants hailing from Greece. The participants who worked in diverse job positions in the maritime sector completed a questionnaire about their demographics, employment functions, training experiences, and mentorship. The survey process revealed that most women do not hold a managerial position (16,3%) which comes in line with the already existing literature focused on gender disparity and the phenomenon of the glass ceiling effect. The report also underlines the importance of specific programs and policies to promote gender equality and inclusion in the maritime sector. A high rate of the participants mentioned that they have not experienced any support within the work environment or any training to improve their skills. Finally, the paper attempts to illustrate the need for a more diverse and prosperous marine sector by expanding training options and mentorship initiatives to encourage women to thrive in their professions.
