Adopted

What it asks for, in the Parliament's words

• Calls on the Member States to promote flexibility for men, as well as for women, in terms of working hours and work organisation in order to promote the reconciliation of family life and work
• Calls on the Commission and the Member States to promote policies that aim to eliminate precarious work and involuntary part-time work in order to improve the situation for women in the labour market
• Calls on the Member States to combat harmful practices such as female genital mutilation, early and forced marriage and so-called ‘honour-related violence’, which specifically injures and limits young women and girls
