<![CDATA[Abstract Gender equality remains unachieved in performance evaluation systems, particularly for female leaders in the male-dominated automotive industry. This study examines gender discrimination in performance appraisals for female managerial and supervisory leaders using Systematic Literature Review (SLR) with PRISMA approach. Findings reveal biases from masculine work culture, gender stereotypes, and lack of structural support hinder women's career progression, reducing motivation, increasing turnover, and limiting organizational innovation. Strategies include strengthening anti-discrimination regulations, wage transparency, flexible policies, gender awareness training, technical education access, cross-sector collaboration, gender-disaggregated data, inclusive culture, and female mentoring/role models. Comprehensive interventions are essential for fair, productive workplaces supporting female leadership.Keywords: gender discrimination; performance appraisal; female leadership; automotive industry; gender stereotypes.]]>
