Gender and Work

Gender and Work

This research area focuses on gender inequalities in both the labour market and the domestic sphere. It examines how gender shapes employment, working conditions, the distribution of paid and unpaid work, and the relationship between work and family life.

Key areas of research include work-life balance, gender equality policies, the gendered division of labour, and the provision of public care services and their impact on women’s employment and working lives.
