Differences in men's & women's work, care & leisure time
'The economic crisis has profoundly affected the labour market and private life of men and women. This study examines the interrelation of policies with the ways women and men allocate time to paid work, care and leisure and the gendered outcomes produced in different socio-economic and cultural settings. It shows that policies are powerful tools which can contribute to a better work-life balance and transform gender roles in accordance to the targets of EU2020 strategy and EU28 commitment to gender equality.'- Creator

She Figures 2015
She Figures 2015
'She Figures 2015 investigates the level of progress made towards gender equality in research & innovation (R&I) in Europe. It is the main source of pan-European, comparable statistics on the representation of women and men amongst PhD graduates, researchers and academic decision-makers. The data also sheds light on differences in the experiences of women and men working in research – such as relative pay, working conditions and success in obtaining research funds. It also presents for the first time the situation of women and men in scientific publication and inventorships, as well as the inclusion of the gender dimension in scientific articles.' -

Poverty, gender and lone parents in the EU Review of the implementation of the Beijing Platform for Action

Almost half (48 %) of lone mothers and a third (32 %) of lone fathers are at risk of poverty or social exclusion. Women in particular are affected as they make up almost 85 % of all one-parent families in the EU. -

What if your boss is a woman? work organization, work-life balance and gender discrimination at the workplace
Authors investigate the association between female leadership, work organization practices and perceived gender discrimination within firms. Using data for 30 European countries for the period 1995-2010, authors find that having a female “boss” is associated with lower overall gender discrimination at work. The female boss effect, however, differs across gender: it is associated with lower discrimination among female employees, but higher .among male employees. Authors also investigate the underlying mechanisms that shape gender discrimination within firms. Authors find evidence of a “women helping women” pattern through spill-over effects which reduce discrimination among women, but increase discrimination among men, particularly in female-dominated jobs. A better balance between work and life, a supportive work environment and flexible working time, particularly for women in high-skilled jobs, are shown to be effective in reducing gender discrimination. The above findings are .robust to a number of specification changes and different sub-populations in our sample. .Further, similar results are found when more traditional measures of gender imbalance, such as wages or career prospects, are used. Finally, to account for potential endogeneity and selection, arising from the non-random distribution of females in higher-rank jobs, authors jointly estimate the selection process and the discrimination equation, finding support for a causalinterpretation of the results- Creator
