Abstract:
In this research paper an attempt has been made to highlight the I menace of sexual harassment at various work places in India. In our male dominated society women are facing the serious evil of sexual harassment in day to day life not only in formal institutions and working places but also in informal places like fields, roads especially women engaging in labour work in construction of buildings and also women working as street vendors. So to tackle this challenge government should implement laws strictly and organize anti-harassment workshops in all working places so that everyone fells the

Abstract:
Early modern Florentines depicted their taverns as wonderful and raucous places that were central to masculine sociability and a threat to female chastity. Many modern historians have followed this lead, presenting the history of Florentine taverns as a study of contemporary sociability and morality. In contrast to the male-centric tavern, this study explores sixteenth-century Florentine taverns as places of work employing many women in a variety of roles. Focusing on workscapes problematizes occupational gendering and considers how taverns involved the tavern keeper’s household and neighbours

This article discusses how changes in male-dominated work are connected to changes in gender constructions in the workplaces. The discussion is based on results from research conducted 2001–2021, mainly qualitative empirical studies of mine work. Although the development of the mining industry will not be as technologically deterministic and rapid as the usual dystopian and utopian visions predict, our research shows that there has already been changes that have affected mine work and workplaces. These changes have challenged the old, gendered mining workplace cultures and the implementation o

For women academics, the gendered university places expectations not experienced by their male colleagues. In particular, scholarly literature includes many instances of expectations that female scholars, particularly those in management roles, will take on a motherly role within the academy. These occur even in female-dominated professions such as social work. This paper identifies four groups within the university who expect women academics to adopt a mothering role: students, staff and colleagues, senior management, and in some instances women themselves.

Research shows that although the representation of women in the workforce has increased over the past couple of decades, there are many industries that still remain male dominated. In addition, it is generally known that such male-dominated industries have minimal female representation at their managerial levels. One such male-dominated industry in South Africa is the air traffic control (ATC) industry. Women represent about 30 percent of the industry, which suggest their status in the industry is still quite low. The purpose of this study was to examine male and female air traffic controllers

Abstract:
Abstract FOR much of its existence, Fraternity was the neglected Third Person of the republican Trinity: it was the Jacobin equivalent of the Holy Spirit. Historians largely concentrated their attention on the creative and redemptive work of the other two persons of the trinity, Liberty and Equality, especially in those periods of social upheaval when Equality accused Liberty of ignoring its sufferings. Yet, like its divine counterpart, Fraternity inspired a steady if less spectacular devotion as the tangible expression of the bond between Liberty and Equality. During the nineteenth and twenti

This chapter examines Rosenstrauch’s years as an actor in Mecklenburg-Schwerin between 1800 and 1804. He had left Kassel in 1800 for a new engagement with the ducal court theater in Schwerin. The chapter opens with his trip from Kassel to Schwerin, explaining the challenges of traveling between the fragmented states of the Holy Roman Empire and the historical and socioeconomic peculiarities of the Baltic region of Europe to which Mecklenburg belonged. It then describes the differences between Hesse-Kassel and Mecklenburg-Schwerin. In contrast to Hesse, Mecklenburg was dominated by serf-owning

For example, in Germany, the proportion of women studying business information systems is currently 21%, compared to 48% in business administration (Statistisches Bundesamt, 2020). Which characteristics make the professional field of business information systems appear attractive to women and men – and which characteristics do not?

Abstract:
Gender Based Violence (GBV) has been a priority agenda in the international maritime community in recent years when GBV was anonymously reported through social media. GBV is particularly a challenge for young women seafarers who are more likely to experience sexual harassment than their male counterparts. Nevertheless, GBV is a common problem for all seafarers on board where a hostile environment and hierarchical and male-dominated work cultures may foster GBV. A similar term, sexual assault and sexual harassment (SASH) is used during the meetings of the International Maritime Organization (IM

Abstract The oil and gas industry has historically been male-dominated, and women on site faced several challenges and obstacles. These include stereotypes and biases, safety concerns, physical demands, lack of support, and work-life balance issues. However, organizations can promote diversity and inclusion, provide education and training opportunities, create support systems, address safety concerns, offer flexibility, and challenge gender stereotypes to overcome these challenges.

This essay explores possibilities for a feminist architecture through the work of Marta Lonzi (1938-2008), an Italian architect and feminist. Lonzi's significance lies not only in her design achievements but in her feminist critique of the creative process, which she sees as a relational and subjective act.In collaboration with her sister Carla, a key figure in Italian feminism, Marta contributed to the Rivolta Femminile movement an

The rise in female engineers and scientists in the industry has resulted in, among other things, better opportunities to access higher education and training in the oil and gas field.

This experiment had more than 5000 participants from five Latin American countries. We test two possible mechanisms: the gender-stereotypes related to job skills and the use of inclusive language. We find that language matters, and men and women value information and inclusive language in job advertisements. However, women are more sensitive in this regard.

Since the 1980s, however, an increasing proportion of the U.S labor force has experienced unstable employment and inequitable income, while growing numbers of the business firms upon which they rely for employment have generated anemic productivity growth.

For women, globally and across regions, the impact of the food systems crisis is more severe than for men, and women are more food insecure than men.
