- Description
- This report analyzes data for all 50 states and the District of Columbia across six topical areas that affect women’s lives: political participation, employment and earnings, work and family, poverty and opportunity, health and well-being, and violence and safety. Within each of these areas, various indicators of well-being are explored. While the focus of the report is on the status of Black women, comparisons between Black women and other racial and ethnic groups of women (and men) are presented to contextualize the data. Basic demographic data for each state are also provided. The report concludes with recommendations to improve the status of Black women in the United States.

- Description
- 'With an aging population and declining productivity growth, Europe faces serious challenges to raising its output growth. Adding to these challenges are the various gender gaps in the labor market. Despite significant progress in recent decades, there are still fewer women than men participating in Europe’s labor market, and women are more likely to work part time. Furthermore, a smaller share of women reaches the top rungs of the corporate ladder. .Against this backdrop, this paper investigates the drivers of female labor force participation in Europe as well as what effects greater gender diversity in senior corporate positions might have for Europe’s economic performance. Reexamining the factors driving women’s labor force participation is particularly important because in many European countries the process of closing the gender gap has stalled despite greater gender equality in human capital investment, declining birth rates, changing social norms, and equal legal access to employment opportunities. .For women in Europe the decision to work is not simply a matter of personal choice—policies matter, too. .More women in the labor force paves the way for increased diversity in senior corporate positions and better firm performance. The empirical evidence suggests a strong positive association between firms’ gender diversity in senior positions and corporate financial performance.'

- 'The report examines changes in working conditions, focusing on the extent of occupational concentration of, .and segregation between, the sexes in today’s workplace and showing how this impacts on the quality of women’s and men’s working lives. Key similarities and differences in women’s and men’s working environments are examined, while specific aspects of job quality – including working hours, job satisfaction, work–life compatibility and work-related health outcomes – are explored to help gauge the experiences of women and men in an everchanging workplace.'

- Description
- 'This report has three aims: reviewing the ILO’s progress in assisting constituents to achieve gender equality in the world of work: highlighting its current efforts to implement International Labour Conference (ILC) resolutions and Governing Body decisions on promoting gender equality and mainstreaming it in the Decent Work Agenda: and providing background for constituents to chart a strategic course for future work. The context of the current financial and economic crisis has made the analysis of successful initiatives especially relevant. The crisis will impact heavily on both women’s and men’s efforts to find and keep decent work, and the progress made by ILO constituents around the world is threatened. Recovery packages that are designed too hurriedly and without sufficient social dialogue may inadvertently exacerbate existing sex discrimination in the labour market. .The report makes the case for scaling up measures to eliminate sex discrimination in the world of work and highlights ILO interventions in all regions. The ILO approach is grounded in the rights-based argument and the economic efficiency rationale: not only is gender equality in the world of work a matter of human rights and justice for workers, it also makes good business sense for employers and is instrumental in achieving economic growth and poverty reduction at national levels.'

- 'This, the sixth annual European Jobs Monitor report, looks in more detail at recent shifts (from the second quarter (Q2) of 2011 to 2016 Q2) in employment at Member State and aggregate EU levels. Part 1 of the report applies a ‘jobs-based approach’ to describe employment shifts quantitatively (how many jobs were created or destroyed and in what sectors) and qualitatively (what kinds of jobs they were, primarily in terms of average hourly pay). Part 2, a more analytical section, discusses the role that occupations play in structuring European wage inequality, and to what extent the observed patterns of job polarisation and upgrading have contributed to wage inequality trends in the last decade.'

- Description
- 'This Eurobarometer Survey seeks to measure Europeans' perceptions of gender inequalities within their own country: how widespread inequalities between women and men are, and whether the situation has improved or worsened compared with ten years ago: whether men or women are more likely to experience such .discrimination among particular groups of people (young, old, people with disabilities, migrants, single parents, and working parents with young children): and the areas of life (e.g. work, school, media, politics) where gender stereotypes are deemed to be most prevalent. It also examines Europeans’ general attitudes towards gender equality and, more specifically, the role of women in the workplace and the role of men at home. In .terms of tackling gender inequalities, the survey provides measures on Europeans’ opinions on which organisations have contributed most over the last ten years: whether this should be an EU priority: which areas should be dealt with most urgently: and what measures are considered to be the most effective at increasing the number of women in the workplace, and increasing the amount of time men spend on home care activities. .Finally, the survey explores the issue of violence against women – what Europeans think this encompasses and which specific forms of such violence the EU should focus its efforts on.'

- 'Eindrapport met de uitkomsten aan van de expertmeeting ‘Gendersensitief beleid bij gemeenten’ die op 11 juni 2015 werd georganiseerd door de Nederlandse Vrouwen Raad, in samenwerking met Atria, Mezzo en Movisie. De expertmeeting maakt deel uit van het project Zorg M/V van de Nederlandse Vrouwen Raad. .De aanleiding voor de expertmeeting was de inwerkingtreding op 1 januari 2015 van het lokale beleid na de decentralisaties naar het gemeentelijk sociaal domein. Vanaf dat moment wordt voor ondersteuning aan ouderen, mensen met een lichamelijke of verstandelijke beperking of een psychische stoornis en voor kinderen in de knel, in eerste instantie een beroep gedaan op de sociale omgeving: familie, buren en vrienden, waarna wordt bekeken wat in aanvulling daarop nodig is. Daardoor neemt de vraag naar informele zorg toe: mantelzorg, vrijwilligerswerk en burenhulp. De bezuinigingen waarmee de decentralisaties gepaard gaan, zetten de banen bij formele zorgorganisaties onder druk. Dat treft voornamelijk vrouwen in deeltijdbanen omdat die in de zorg oververtegenwoordigd zijn. Zij worden door gemeenten graag ontvangen als vrijwilliger voor de begeleiding van ouderen en jongeren. Ook zullen mensen die nu afhankelijk zijn van een uitkering verder worden gestimuleerd tot werk, eventueel in de vorm van te leveren informele zorg. Voor veel Nederlanders verandert dan ook de verhouding tussen zorg en werk. De vraag is of het nieuwe beleid voor vrouwen anders en minder gunstig uitpakt dan voor mannen. .De expertmeeting ‘Gendersensitief beleid bij gemeenten’ heeft als doel in kaart te brengen op welke manier gemeenten hun sociaal beleid na de decentralisaties kunnen inrichten en uitvoeren zodat de (mantel-)zorgtaken meer gelijkelijk over mannen en vrouwen worden verdeeld, waardoor een zo optimaal mogelijke verdeling tussen mannen en vrouwen mogelijk wordt.' .Bevat de volgende bijlagen: 1 Position paper ‘Gendersensitief beleid bij gemeenten’, juni 2015 .2 Inleidingen expertmeeting: Eelco Wierda, Dorly Deeg, Liesbeth Hoogendijk .3 Verslag expertmeeting .4 ‘Moet de man meer mantelzorgen?’ Maaike van Houten, Trouw, 11 juni 2015

- Description
- This report examines the impacts of the changing contours of labour supply on the employment structure over the last quarter-century in Europe (1995–2019). The primary focus is on gender, with a secondary focus on ageing. Among the main findings are that employment shares in gender-balanced jobs have declined despite the rising female share of employment and that gender pay gaps are highest in well-paid jobs.
