Abstrakt v dalším jazyce:	The paper aims to investigate progress of gender-based disparities in the context of the Czech Republic, over the period 2006 - 2017. The analysis is conducted using data from The Global Gender Gap Reports published annually by the World Economic Forum. Particular attention is paid to the Economic Participation and Opportunity subindex of the Gender Gap Index (GGI). Furthermore, trends and scores of individual indicators addressing this subindex, namely Labour Force Participation, Wage Equality for Similar Work, Estimated Earned Income and Ability of Women to Rise to Positions of Leadership over the period 2006-2017 are analyzed and discussed. The findings indicate that despite a minor improvement in the Czech Republic’s rating in the Economic Participation and Opportunities subindex over the period 2006-2017, the overall the gap between women and men in this subindex remains significant. Moreover, the results indicate that the lower score in the subindex is directly connected to the country’s worse performance in the Wage Equality for Similar Work, Estimated Earned Income and Ability of Women to Rise to Positions of Leadership indicators. On the other hand, our analysis reveals that the Czech Republic ranks higher in gender parity in relation to the Labour Force Participation indicator. The study thus contributes to better understanding of how the Czech Republic progress towards gender parity with a special emphasis on the economic aspects and of the related challenges.
