It also investigates recently recognized forms of discrimination, including those based on age and sexual orientation, and emerging forms such as genetic and lifestyle discrimination. Various institutional and policy responses to combat all kinds of discrimination in the workplace are highlighted.

Download or read book Labour Market Inequality Between Men and Women written by B. Hessel and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reducing labour market inequality between women and men has been a policy objective at both the European level and the level of the Member States of the European Union for quite some time. Various regulations and laws forbid unequal treatment, including measures to advance women's position in the labour market. Nevertheless, women's pay is still substantially lower than men's, they often hold inferior jobs and perform most of the care tasks in society. This volume discusses the central issues in today's policy and the debate on this issue by economic, legal and sociological experts. The focus is on EU law and the necessary redistribution of paid and unpaid labour between women and men. The central question throughout the discussion is to what extent current regulations either favour or hinder the realization of the goal of labour market equality between women and men.

Download or read book Gender Equality at Work Part time and Partly Equal Gender and Work in the Netherlands written by OECD and published by OECD Publishing. This book was released on 2019-09-11 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Netherlands performs well on many measures of gender equality, but the country faces a persistent equality challenge between women and men: the high share of women in part-time jobs. Nearly 60% of women in the Dutch labour market work part-time, roughly three times the OECD average for women, and over three times the rate for Dutch men. The Netherlands’ gender gap in hours worked contributes to the gender gap in earnings, the gender gap in pensions, women’s slower progression into management roles, and the unequal division of unpaid work at home. These gaps typically widen with parenthood, as mothers often reduce hours in the labour market to take on more unpaid care work at home.

This book was released on 1980 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document contains the proceedings of a high-level conference on the Employment of Women, attended by labor ministers and other high officials of countries belonging to the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). Delegates to the conference adopted a 14-point declaration pledging themselves to achieve equality of opportunity particularly for the conditions in the employment of women. During the conference, the representatives examined (1) the implication of high and rising participation rates of women workers in the various countries, despite slack labor markets since the mid-1970's and (2) the persistence of labor market segregation despite equal opportunity policies already practiced in most member countries. This report presents the declaration drawn up by the conference, the analytical papers for the conference, and the opening addresses by the secretary-general of the OECD and the Minister of Labor of Denmark, who served as president of the conference. A list of participants and observers is included in the appendix to the document. (KC)
