Abstract: Abstract In the last years, many researches have been carried out in European Union, but less in Romania about equality of chances between men and women on the labor market and business initiation and about the gender gap in entrepreneurship. In the present paper, we aim to provide more clarity regarding the current situation of gender disparities in entrepreneurship in the Western Region of Romania, confirming the conclusions recognized in the literature of female entrepreneurship that claims that gender disparities still exist. In the first part of the research, an analysis of the labor market is carried out using specific indicators, and then the analysis of the number of women’s businesses compared to those of men. The counties covered by this study are Arad, Timis, Caras-Severin and Hunedoara.
