Non è questa una discriminazione positiva?

I think it is rather an encouragment for women to apply.

It does not mean that women are given priority over men. It could maybe mean that a woman is picked when two candidates are equal in all other regards except for gender.

So given that work participation is still significantly lower for women I think such encouragments are probably needed and can make some, albeit probably a small, impact on having more women applying.

So they’re looking for a frontalier woman if you read between the lines
