There was an error in the original publication [1]. On page 353, Hypothesis 3 was mistakenly described as “There is a positive link between workplace gender discriminatory practices and the career progression of women”. That is what the narrative before the hypothesis states. The correct Hypothesis 3 should be as follows:
There is a positive link between the skills development and the career progression of women.
In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Figure 1 as published. There is an arrow missing between the item “Skills development” and the item “Career progression” to show their relationship. The corrected Figure 1 appears below.
Figure 1.
Research framework.
In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Figure 2 as published. In that figure, the structural model is not correct. The numbers/findings and symbols in the diagram are not aligned. The “n.s” symbol, which indicates non-statistical relationships, was not supposed to appear on Hypothesis 1 and 3 (because those relationships were statistically significant). Only H2 is not significant (n.s). The corrected Figure 2 appears below.

Structural model.
In the original publication [1], there was a mistake in Table 4 as published. “H1 is rejected” is wrong. The corrected Table 4 appears below.

Standardized regression weights.
The authors state that the scientific conclusions are unaffected. This correction was approved by the Academic Editor. The original publication has also been updated.
