German learners of English are curious about your opinion!

Dear mumsnet-users,

we, a German class of learners of English as a foreign language, are currently working on the topic ?The world of work? and have been focussing on gender-related issues such as maternity/paternity leave and the unequal payment for men and women?s jobs. We would like to get first-hand information from people who are willing to share their experience with us.
Please take a few minutes and answer our questions to help us get a clear picture of the present situation of young people around the world.

Thank you so much for taking your time!
