Abstract [eng] Political, economical and social changes in our country started after regaining independence. It had a lot of influence on all strata of society in all spheres of life. The main aim of the present work was to review the women’s and men’s position in the labour market by sociological research. The paper offers a discussion of the influence of the labour market on the women’s status in Lithuania and of the reasons for a specific status of women in labour market. The problems such as the discrimination and segregation of women in the labour market are formulated. In Lithuania, where the features of a patriarchal society are still quite distinct, women are becoming more resolute to join the labour market and in this way realize their professional abilities and skills, to take a more active part in social life, as well as to ensure economic independence for themselves. Analysis of the equal opportunities in the labour market shows that despite advanced laws assuring equal opportunities and positive changes in society, the problem of women’s discrimination at work is rather acute in our country.
