Are women adequately represented in the top-level positions in state bureaucracies and are impediments that women might encounter in reaching the highest level administrative posts related to the policy missions and/or organisational characteristics of these agencies? The authors found that (a) women are under-represented in top-level administrative and professional positions in distributive and regulatory agencies, suggesting the continued presence of glass ceilings in such agencies; (b) women are better represented among administrative and especially professional cadres in redistributive agencies, however their full representation at the uppermost administrative levels remains an unrealized goal; and (c) women are less well represented in higher paying positions (in proportion to their numbers in the agency) in agencies with higher salaries. - Reproduced.  aBureaucracy  aWomen in the civil service  aKerr, Brinck  aMiller, Will  aAdministration and Society  a62224  c62224d62224  00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 36, Issue no: 4pAR62674r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
