abstract: 'Background Barriers to achieving work-life balance, as well as
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gender-based differences, exist in the male-dominated surgical specialty
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in veterinary medicine. Similar information does not exist for the more
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
feminized American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (ACVIM).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Hypothesis/Objectives To provide data on the professional and personal
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
lives of Diplomates of the ACVIM so as to help define the state of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
specialty, including gender-related differences, and identify areas
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
requiring intervention to improve work-life balance. Sample A total of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
896 surveys (781 completed) of Diplomates of the ACVIM, including
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cardiology, large animal internal medicine, neurology, oncology, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
small animal internal medicine. Methods An 82-item online survey was
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
distributed in February 2017 to ACVIM Diplomates via their respective
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ACVIM listserv. Participation was voluntary. Results Thirty percent of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the total ACVIM registered membership responded and 26\% completed
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
surveys; 25\% were men and 75\% were women. Specialists in academia
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
worked significantly more hours, with larger numbers of diplomates per
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
specialty section, and made less money compared with those in private
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
practice. Women were less likely to report full-time employment,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
practice ownership, or higher academic rank, and reported 20\% lower
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
income overall (after adjustment for relevant factors) as compared with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
men. Men and women differed in their subjective assessment of the effect
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of gender in the workplace. Eighty-three percent of respondents were
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
somewhat satisfied or better with their career. Conclusions and Clinical
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Importance Specialization in the ACVIM is a satisfying and potentially
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
profitable career. However, despite a highly feminized workforce,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
significant gender-related imbalances are evident.'
