abstract: 'Research shows that highly skilled migrant women often have poor quality
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
jobs or no employment. This paper addresses two research gaps. First, it
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
provides a comparative perspective that examines differences and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
commonalities in the quality of employment of four highly skilled
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
groups: migrant- and non-migrant women and men. Four statistical
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
indicators are examined to grasp these differences: employment rates,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
income, adequacy of paid work, and employment status. The results
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
highlight the role of gender and country of birth: Swiss-born men
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
experience the best employment quality, and foreign-born women the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
worst. Second, it offers a family perspective to study how the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment trajectories of skilled migrant women develop in time and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
place in relation to their partners''. The qualitative life-course
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
analysis indicates that skill advancement is more favourable for migrant
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and non-migrant men than for migrant and non-migrant women. However,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
skill advancement for migrant women depends greatly on the strategies
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
enacted by domestic partners about how to divide paid employment and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
family work, and where to live. The statistical study draws on recent
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
data from Swiss labour market surveys. The life-course analysis focuses
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
on 77 biographical interviews with tertiary-educated individuals.
