- Description
- The report, ‘Making work pay’: debates from a gender perspective, is a comparative review of some recent policy reforms in 30 European countries. The aim of the report is to identify the gender impact of tax or social benefit reforms, the effect of maternity and parental leave on employment (re-)integration, and the development of childcare services as an instrument to support parents’ employment.The report concludes that a gender mainstreaming perspective is generally lacking in recent national tax or social benefit reforms. Where a gender perspective has been developed, it usually merely consists of identifying certain target groups in which women predominate. Even where a more detailed gender impact assessment has occurred, the issues exposed may not be dealt with, due to competing political priorities.

- Description
- This report gives a picture of where women stand today and how they have progressed in the world of work over the last 20 years, and of the root causes of inequalities and how they should be tackled based on what works and the guidance provided by international labour standards. It shows that, despite some encouraging advances, major gender gaps at work remain. Increasing gender parity in educational attainment does not prevent women from being concentrated in middle to lower-paid occupations that reflect traditional gender stereotypes and beliefs about women’s and men’s aspirations and capabilities.

- This paper seeks to understand how care policies are shaped. It looks at the dynamic between how constituencies make care claims and the ways in which care policies are constructed and delivered in different national, regional and historical contexts. The focus is mainly on child care policies for working parents in Europe, but the purview also includes policies for disabled people and unpaid careers. There are two main sections to the paper. The first focuses on the ways different political actors frame care policies in Europe. The second part examines policies in national context in relation to which issues drive policies and what this means for outcomes in terms of social inequalities: demographic change, social investment, employment-creation, and the global nature of care policy.

- Study commissioned by the European Parliament’s Policy Department for Citizens’ Rights and Constitutional Affairs at the request of the FEMM Committee, the Committee on Women’s Rights and Gender Equality of the European Parliament. .COVID-19 has direct and indirect effects on women, other genders and marginalised groups within Europe. This study outlines some of the key gendered effects of the outbreak thus far and suggestions for how these may extend into the post-crisis period based on currently available data on COVID and longer-term effects of previous outbreaks of pathogens. This includes the lack of sex-disaggregated data, the role of healthcare workers and care workers, domestic violence, the impact of quarantine on feminised sectors of the economy, the additional unpaid labour on women as a result of lockdown, access to maternity, sexual and reproductive health services.

- Description
- Authors analyze paid and unpaid work-time inequalities among Bolivian urban adults using time use data from a 2001 household survey. They identified a gender-based division of labor characterized not so much by who does what type of work but by how much work of each type they do. There is a trade-off between paid and unpaid work, but this trade-off is only partial: women's entry into the labor market tends to result in a double shift of paid and unpaid work. Authors also find very high levels of within-group inequality in the distributions of paid and unpaid work-time for men and women, a sign that, beyond the sexual division of labor, subgroup differentiation is also important. Using decompositions of the inequality in the distribution of total time spent at work, they show that gender plays an important role in determining the proportion of paid to unpaid work done by individuals, but it plays a lesser role in determining the higher total workload of some individuals relative to others.
