الحاجز غير المرئي أو السقف الزجاجي

حاجزغير مرئي يمنع المرأة من الارتقاء إلى مستويات وظيفية عليا
Example sentences:
يوم المرأة العالمي هل اخترقت المرأة "السقف الزجاجي"؟ (منظمة العمل الدولية)
Note from asker:
It is not just for women. The term glass ceiling refers to situations where the advancement of a qualified person within the hierarchy of an organization is stopped at a lower level because of some form of discrimination, most commonly sexism or racism, but since the term was coined, "glass ceiling" has also come to describe the limited advancement of the deaf, blind, disabled, aged, black and sexual minorities.
Seria possível questionar o cliente a respeito do contexto da palavra "Integrada" no título do cargo?
It seems to me that in Portugal, Programa de Doutorado Integrado usually refers to a doctoral programme carried out at the institute by someone employed/registered at the institute itself; see for example https://www.uc.pt/++preview++/uid/cea/downloads/regulamento_pos_doc: A candidatura deve identificar um orientador preferencial dentre os investigadores doutorados do CEAUCP, ou pode indicar, se subscrita à partida pelo investigador responsável, o doutorado do CEAUCP, **investigador integrado ou colaborador,** que assume a orientação em caso de aprovação. I am not at al sure though.
Agreed, which is why I included "with tenure" in my answer, as the link to the institution involves not just a(n) (temporary) employment status, but a position in the corresponding career structure.
EQUIPA DE INVESTIGAÇÃO Como se define um membro integrado? Um investigador tem de cumprir três critérios mínimos para ser considerado membro integrado de uma unidade de I&D: Ser investigador com o grau académico de doutor ou o título de agregado e que em qualquer dos casos têm obrigatoriamente um contrato ou vínculo com uma instituição portuguesa; Dedicar um mínimo de 30% a atividades de investigação. A percentagem de tempo total de dedicação a atividades de I&D deve ser a que resulta da subtração a 100% da percentagem dedicada ao ensino e a outras atividades que não sejam de I&D; Ter produzido pelo menos dois indicadores de produção científica (pode incluir a tese de doutoramento), se doutorado após 31/12/2009 e quatro indicadores de produção científica nos últimos cinco anos, se doutorado antes de 31/12/2009. São permitidos indicadores alternativos às tabelas de referência FCT desde que devidamente justificados na candidatura e com as implicações na avaliação. https://www.fct.pt/apoios/unidades/faq.phtml.pt
