This chapter is part of Entrepreneurship Policies through a Gender Lens report, which identifies limitations of current policy approaches and suggests more effective design and delivery of women-focused entrepreneurship policies and the gendered implications of mainstream policies and programmes. The report presents 27 policy chapters on women’s entrepreneurship policy that were prepared by members of the Global Women’s Entrepreneurship Policy (www.globalwep.org) network of researchers in collaboration with the OECD. There is no specific policy support for women-led businesses in the Czech Republic in spite of the growing number of self-employed women. In the CR, women entrepreneurs face the additional burden of an unequal division of work and homecare, combined with traditional gender expectations that are reflected in family and tax policies and in the lack of flexible, part-time and family-friendly jobs. Based on analysis authors suggest specific recommendations for Czech Republic.
