This study assesses the relationship between formal communication and the work climate at COOPEC Pilote, employing Kendall’s correlation to analyze this connection. Data was collected through a questionnaire distributed to the cooperative’s employees. The analysis indicates that the work climate is rated as good at 52.6%, primarily due to a human resources management approach that combats discrimination and values well-done work. However, the results from the Kendall test reveal a negative correlation between formal communication and the work climate, with insufficient data to establish a significant relationship. Consequently, the null hypothesis, which posits the absence of a link between formal communication and the work climate, is accepted.
Women face issues of discrimination in public administration in South Kivu in terms of promotion, prejudices regarding their competence, wage inequalities compared to men, and discrimination in recruitment. This persists despite several legal instruments promoting women’s rights, notably UN Resolution 1325. Women are victims of stereotypes in their professional work and experience sexism in the workplace. Men tend to underestimate women’s competence, reinforcing biases against them and reducing equal opportunities between men and women, despite women’s academic performance often being better than that of men.
