The paper analyzes the regulatory framework, identifies problems of discrimination against men, evaluates the effectiveness of existing measures and offers recommendations for their improvement. The subject of the study is administrative measures aimed at ensuring equality between men and women in the civil service, with an emphasis on the problems of discrimination against men and the prospects for improving mechanisms to eliminate gender inequality. The research methodology includes an analysis of the regulatory framework, statistical analysis of data on gender representation, sociological methods (expert interviews, survey analysis), comparative analysis of international experience, and a systematic analysis method to identify the interrelationships of factors affecting gender equality. The novelty of the research lies in a comprehensive analysis of the problem of gender equality in the civil service, taking into account the problems of discrimination against men, in particular the phenomenon of the "glass floor/ceiling", and the development of recommendations for improving administrative measures based on international experience and taking into account the specifics of Russian reality. Despite progress in creating a regulatory framework, de facto gender equality in the civil service has not been achieved. Discrimination, gender stereotypes and an imbalance in representation persist, affecting both women and men. Improvement requires: clarifying legislation, strengthening accountability measures, reviewing personnel selection criteria, adapting international experience, developing a national strategy, and actively involving public organizations. The implementation of the proposed measures will create a more equitable and efficient public service system.
