This survey comprises the following areas: Socio-Demographic, Labour, Work-Life Balance, Leadership Style, Harassment situations and an open section where they can express their ideas. Title and description can be found on the first row. A questionnaire was developed by a team of psychologists and seafarers (both women and men), divided in several sections comprising questions regarding: 1. Socio-Demographic factors: such as age, marital status, type of contract, position on board, qualification, experience and environmental components. 2. Labour factors: discrimination perceived, support, some questions about the feelings of having to perform better than male officers, stressing factors, different treatment for being a woman and family tradition. 3. Work-Life Balance: with questions about motherhood, family life, relations, work satisfaction, relationships on board, etc. 4. Leadership Style: this section tries to identify any dissimilar behaviour within colleagues, port staff and subordinates because of gender differences, focusing on leadership characteristics. 5. Harassment Situations: clear or veiled situations of harassment from superiors, colleagues or any other. The use of a masculine behaviour. The ability to handle unpleasant situations. 6. Finally, a free section for suggestions. The survey is currently online, so it is accessible at https://forms.gle/f3GdmBLZkHfKDuFn6 .
