The emblematic scientific literature overview on the topic is highlighting the gender imbalance in the seafaring profession and the stringent need for maritime gender policies,considering women labor force represent an untapped resource that will revive the maritime industry. A statistical comparison between gender indicators recorded in Romania and the values recorded at the level of the European Union reveals that gender equality values from Romania are mostly similar to the European Union average,suggesting Romania is on the good path of reducing gender bias.
