Abstract:
This e-book examines the role and impact of recent changes in the labour market for gender issues. It brings together four of the papers that resulted from the European research project "Work Changes Gender" carried out in the last 3 years. The papers are situated at the crossroads where two strands of research and policymaking meet: recent changes in the labour market and the differences in labour market performance of the genders. The contributions cover a large variety of European countries, and an interesting range of relevant topics such as wage differentials, segregation or domestic and labour market work time differentials.
