abstract: 'This mixed-method article focuses on Muslim women who are second
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
generation - children of immigrants, born and bred in France - by
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
bringing to the fore the intersection of (visibility of) religion and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gender in the production of labour market access, outcomes and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
experiences. The quantitative analysis uses the Trajectories and Origins
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Survey 2009 and the European Social Survey (2006-2016) to explore how
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
religious affiliation impacts labour market outcomes and how
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
discriminatory practices are perceived. The qualitative analysis builds
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
on semi-structured interviews which bring together, for the first time,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
women from a well-established minority ethnic group in France -
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Algerians - and women from a newly-settled group - Pakistanis. In doing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
so, the analysis offers a conceptual understanding of the ways in which
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gendered and religious displays shape labour market experiences. We find
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
that ethnicity (based on parental country of birth) is by far the most
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
commonly cited form of experienced and/or perceived discrimination in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
labour market access. In terms of outcomes, Muslim women are the least
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
likely to gain employment, work the least number of hours and earn the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
lowest salaries; those who display their religion (through headscarf
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
wearing practice for example) have an even reduced labour market
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
participation rate. Drawing on the interviews analysis, we suggest that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
certain professional roles and sectors are believed to be accessible for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
those who are perceived to be French and white only. This racialised
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
understanding of Frenchness produces inequality in the workplace and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
blocks professional progression for Muslim women, who are French by
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
birth and educated in France. However, despite experiencing a similar
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
racialisation process, the ways in which the women dealt with unequal
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
treatment at work differed according to their ethnicity.'
