Summary/Abstract: The article investigates how gender equality normative ethics is applied in global automotive suppliers companies across the globe for women in management positions. Although women represent almost half of the global workforce, women have still not reached equality in terms of management positions in global automotive suppliers companies. There is a gap between the gender equality normative ethics present in almost all codes of conduct or codes of ethics of these companies and the gender equality applied ethics in terms of women in management positions. The paper argues that gender equality normative ethics is not detailed expressly and the applied ethics for women in management positions is lacking. The article identifies the gender equality representation of women in management positions in the global automotive suppliers companies based on the public codes of conduct or codes of ethics of these companies of the companies. In this paper, I try to identify what could be the next steps on a normative ethics so that gender equality for women in management positions can be achieved.
