Resumen

Este artículo investiga el papel de una cultura corporativa con perspectiva de género y las estrategias psicológicas en la lucha contra la discriminación de género en las organizaciones sanitarias. El objetivo es analizar cómo los prejuicios de género afectan las prácticas de recursos humanos, como la contratación, el ascenso y la evaluación del desempeño, e identificar soluciones para crear un entorno laboral inclusivo. El estudio utiliza un enfoque cualitativo basado en el análisis de literatura académica, informes institucionales y buenas prácticas internacionales. Se presta especial atención a las barreras específicas de género, como los fenómenos del “techo de cristal” y el “suelo pegajoso”, que dificultan desproporcionadamente el avance profesional de las mujeres en el sector sanitario. La investigación pone de relieve la persistencia de estereotipos de género, brechas salariales y la falta de apoyo psicológico para quienes sufren discriminación. Los principales resultados indican que la implementación de procedimientos de selección justos, el acceso equitativo a la formación y el desarrollo de programas de mentoría son estrategias eficaces para promover la igualdad de género. El estudio concluye que superar los desafíos de género no solo es una responsabilidad ética, sino también una vía para mejorar el rendimiento institucional, la motivación del personal y la calidad de la atención sanitaria.
