Abstract	This study investigates female employees' perceptions of gender equality in their workplace, in order to determine whether gender inequality is to exists in their organization or not. A survey was conducted yielding a response of 39 employees, which included 27 female respondents and served as the basis for research analysis. Responses of the question asked regarding gender inequality were encoded in a numerical form to perform the statistical testing: "Yes" was assigned a value of 1, "No" a value of 0, and "Maybe" a value of 0.5. Using these scores, a one-sample T-test was performed to check whether the average response from female participants significantly deviated from the ideal score of 1, which represents full agreement with gender equality. The findings highlight a gap between organizational ideals and employee experiences, suggesting the need for targeted interventions to address gender-based disparities. This research highlights the importance of listening to employee perceptions and using data-driven approaches to foster a more equitable workplace culture.
