Survey says, “Women Workforces are hired not because they are intelligent but because Enterprise can not afford Man Workforces; moreover there will be less Industrial Relations issues with Women Workforces”. Is this true?

Hiring Women Employees: A Balanced Perspective
We cannot come to a two-point conclusion for hiring women employees. There are more talented women employees than men. Despite the lower representation of women in the workforce in establishments, some of the top management positions are occupied by women. For example, the chairpersons of India's largest public and private banks were women. Therefore, we cannot come to such a conclusion.
Industrial Relations and Women Employees
There was industrial unrest in Karnataka last year by women employees protesting against the lowering of the EPF interest rate. So, we cannot say that there won't be industrial relations issues if we have more women employees.
Evaluating Workforce Issues
Every issue and perception must be scrutinized based on the total number of the workforce in terms of gender and industry, wages, etc. We cannot come to a conclusion with just a one-sided view.

Apart from what Mr. Stephen has mentioned, for a survey, a few people are handpicked, and questionnaires are given or asked where they provide their opinions/answers based on their conceptions. Hence, it is not necessary to assume that all surveys conducted are always correct.

Please check the % of women working over Man in all the enterprise and in any field you will come to conclusion. I dont want to comment further which may lead to gender bias.

Dear Mr. Thakkar,
Kindly share the survey, based on which the question is being asked. As to why women are recruited and women empowerment are two different topics. There are women who are better than men for the positions that, till date, are being considered only for men. Additionally, no one has data that says industrial problems will not occur if women are employed.
Therefore, I request you to please share the survey so that everyone can be on the same page when they are speaking.
