Abstract:

This research aims to assess the household and individual-level factors, specifically education, that affect the probability of women being engaged in decent work activities in the labor market. The study utilized the most recent labor force survey data from Pakistan with a sample size of 64,009 women. The research exploits the multinomial logit model (MNL) for data analysis. Several studies exist on the causes of female labor force participation nationally—in Pakistan—and internationally. However, there is a lack of research exploring the link between women’s access to decent work and various

In her stimulating book The Animal Estate, Harriet Ritvo notes the frequent interchange of terms for describing domestic servants and domestic animals in nineteenth-century discourse, and she emphasizes the especially distinguished role played by horses in the establishment of this rhetoric (18–19).

Abstract Existing coal mining health literature has not adequately addressed the health of women and girls who reside (and perform reproductive labor) within the households of male coal miners exposed to coal dust and other coal toxins.

Findings indicate that there is a statistical difference between these groups of women in age at death, with wives of miners dying 7 years earlier, on average. It

Quite recently, working dual jobs among workers in Malaysia was permitted by the government on the grounds of earning additional income as a substructure for daily living, managing household debts and soldiering on towards achieving a sustainable future.

Abstract:

The logistics sector is considered non-traditional for women as the industry employs mostly men as the required tasks are considered masculine. Logistics operation runs 24/7, which leads to long working hours and overlaps with women’s household responsibilities. The situation is linked to turnover intention among women in this industry. Numerous studies have acknowledged women to be as good as men. Therefore, turnover among women in this industry is a significant loss for the industry as gender imbalance remains a major issue. Furthermore, studies on this subject remain scarce. This study addr

Much of the historical literature on working women has emphasized the extent to which employment varied along racial and ethnic lines. Domestic service in turn-of-the-century America attracted by far the largest proportion of employed women, and female domestics tended to belong to specific ethnic and racial groups. Immigrant domestics, most often Irish, Scandinavian, and German, were generally from areas of the so-called European marriage pattern, and employment for these women was normally temporary and limited to the life-course phase preceding marriage.

Married women or mothers tend to experience such conflict due to the dual demands of professional and domestic roles.

In Sweden — as in other European countries - the question of tax deduction of domestic services is being discussed.

By introducing tax deductions prices would be lowered and the demand for such services would increase. This would in turn enhance employment and transform "black märket work" into regular employment. It would also further gender equality since women who could buy domestic services would spend less time performing household work and more on paid work or a career. However, in all coun

Abstract:

Abstract Background and Objectives Increasingly, Black women are aging alone. Yet information about health correlates and the residential context where older Black women are aging-in-place is lacking. The current study examines one aspect of Aging While Black that impacts Black women – living alone without close family or kin in the household among a sample of older Black women (N = 890). Research Design and Methods Using hierarchical linear models and data from the 2014/2015 and 2019 waves of the Southeastern Pennsylvania Household Health Survey, living alone status (e.g., Level 1) and area-l

Abstract:

Abstract This study investigates differences in the causal effect of fixed-term contracts on affective job insecurity by gender and household context in Germany. Research shows that workers in fixed-term employment are more unsettled about their job security than are permanent employees. We contribute to the literature on subjective job insecurity by explicitly modelling the causal effect of fixed-term employment and by examining how women and men differ in this effect. We argue that gender differences in the labour market positions and a gendered division of labour in the household account fo

Abstract:

ABSTRACTAn estimated 800,000 domestic workers live and work in South Africa. Domestic work is an industry dominated by Black women who are often from marginalised backgrounds. It is one of the few sources of employment accessible to poor and low‐income women not only in South Africa but around the world as well. The foundations of the sector were laid during the Apartheid era, which legislated racially discriminatory laws and normalised racially discriminatory beliefs and practices. This, combined with institutionalised and patriarchal values, which often diminish the economic value of domesti

This paper investigates how having more White coworkers influences the subsequent retention and promotion of Black women relative to other race-gender groups. Studying 9,037 new hires at a professional services firm, we first document large racial turnover and promotion gaps: Even after controlling for observable characteristics, Black employees are 6.7 percentage points (32%) more likely to turn over within two years and 18.7 percentage points (26%) less likely to be promoted on time than their White counterparts. The largest turnover gap is between Black and White women, at 8.9 percentage po

This article examines the link between terms of employment (full time, part time and casual) at an Australian regional university and women’s career progression. The literature identifies lack of transparency in recruitment, promotion and retention; mobility and location; and management perceptions of women’s choice to work flexibly as factors impacting on career progression. However, the voices of women working in regional universities and particularly those of professional staff are often not present in current research.

Abstract While scholarship on “women's liberation” under historically existing socialism focuses on heroic women making inroads into male-dominated domains, this article explores a previously overlooked group of women in socialist China. Known as jiashu in Chinese, these women are the female dependents (wives, mothers, and in-laws) of both male and female employees in a workplace. Specifically, it centers on the experiences of the jiashu of textile workers in the city of Zhengzhou from 1949 to 1962. It argues that, despite being portrayed as “parasitizing” off formal workers, jiashu performed

This paper presents arguments to explain the complexity of developing and producing a digital game (SCHREIER, 2018), which can culminate in unhealthy labor practices known as "crunch time" or simply "crunch". During crunch time, employees often work up to 90 hours a week, often as the release date approaches or there is a marketing event ahead – E.g., the Electronic Entertainment Expo. However, it is not uncommon for studios to run for years on a crunch schedule. A recent well-known example was Cyberpunk 2077 (CD Projekt Red, 2020), which had employees coming out to report abusive years’ worth

Introduction: Poor diet is a major modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Educational attainment is highly correlated with healthy dietary behavior; as education level increases, diet quality also increases. Nevertheless, a recent study reported that Black adults with a high education level consume lower amounts of healthy foods (e.g., fruits, vegetables, whole grains) compared to White adults with a high education level. These findings are concerning because they suggest that certain individual or structural factors may produce diminished returns on educational investment among Bl
