Gender Segregation and Social Change: Men and Women in Changing Labour Markets (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780198273936)

Despite profound economic and social reforms during the Eighties, British men and women remain highly segregated at work; this separatism is strongly related to inequalities in pay, career prospects, and employment protection. This book, part of the new Social Change and Economic Life Initiative Series, explores the nature and significance of gender segregation within the context of British labor market change, examining the sex-labelling of jobs, comparisons between "male" and "female" occupations, and discussions of demand and supply in the labor force.
