Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

The glass ceiling refers to the barrier that blocks the promotion of a qualified worker because of gender or minority membership.
Women and racial and ethnic minorities face glass walls that keep them from moving laterally. Women are assigned to and, therefore, trapped in jobs that reflect their stereotypical helping nature.
The glass escalator refers to the White male advantage experienced in occupations dominated by women.
