Özet:

 Glass ceiling syndrome is generally defined as a career barrier specific to women, which occurs as a result of various reasons that prevent women employees from getting the promotions they expect in their organizations. The obstacles encountered in reaching managerial positions in the tourism sector are related to gender, age, ethnicity and other socio-demographic factors. The study aims to understand the obstacles encountered in ascending to this position and the origins of these obstacles. It aims to overcome the obstacles faced by women working in the kitchen and offers various suggestions and strategies in this context. In this study, it was examined whether there was a relationship and difference between the socio-demographic characteristics and the glass ceiling syndrome of the employees in the kitchen department of the hotels. The population of the research consists of the employees in the kitchen department of the hotels operating in Antalya Region. The sample of the research consists of 444 randomly selected female and male employees in the enterprise. A questionnaire was used as a data collection method. The data obtained in this study were analyzed in the SPSS program. The data were evaluated with reliability and factor analysis, frequency analysis, T test, Anova, and correlation analyses and as a result; it was determined that the stereotypical judgments, occupational discrimination, personal preference perceptions and multiple roles dimensions in the kitchen department of the hotels operating in Antalya Region had a positive effect. As a result, barriers such as gender-based discrimination and Glass Ceilings make it difficult for women to reach senior management positions. This situation may require raising awareness on gender inequality in the business world and adopting more inclusive policies.

 Cam tavan sendromu, genellikle kadın çalışanların kurumlardan bekledikleri terfileri çeşitli sebeplerle alamamaları sonucunda ortaya çıkan, kadınlara özgü bir kariyer engeli olarak tanımlanmaktadır. Turizm sektöründe yöneticilik pozisyonlarına ulaşırken karşılaşılan engeller, cinsiyet, yaş, etnik köken ve diğer sosyo-demografik faktörlerle ilişkilidir. Çalışma bu pozisyona yükselirken karşılaşılan engelleri ve bu engellerin kökenlerini anlamayı hedeflemektedir. Mutfakta çalışan kadınların karşılaştıkları engelleri aşma amacı gütmekte olup, bu bağlamda çeşitli öneriler ve stratejiler sunmaktadır. Bu çalışmada otellerde mutfak departmanındaki çalışanların sosyo-demografik özellikleri ile cam tavan sendromu arasında ilişki veya farklılık olup olmadığı incelenmiştir. Araştırmanın evrenini Antalya Bölgesinde faaliyette bulunan otellerdeki mutfak departmanındaki çalışanlar oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmanın örneklemini işletmede bulunan rastgele seçilmiş 444 kadın ve erkek çalışan oluşturmaktadır. Veri toplama yöntemi olarak da anket kullanılmıştır. Bu çalışmada elde edilen veriler SPSS programında analiz edilmiştir. Veriler güvenilirlik ve Faktör analizi, Frekans analizi, T testi, Anova, korelasyon analizleri ile değerlendirilmiş ve bunun sonucunda; Antalya Bölgesinde faaliyette bulunan otellerdeki mutfak departmanındaki basmakalıp yargılar, mesleki ayrım, kişisel tercih algıları ve çoklu roller boyutunun pozitif yönde etkisi olduğu belirlenmiştir. Sonuç olarak Cinsiyet temelli ayrımcılık ve Cam Tavan gibi engeller, kadınların üst düzey yönetim pozisyonlarına ulaşmasını zorlaştırmaktadır. Bu durum, iş dünyasındaki cinsiyet eşitsizliği konusundaki farkındalığın artırılmasını ve daha kapsayıcı politikaların benimsenmesini gerektirebilir.
