abstract: 'This study examines inequalities in labor market outcomes between
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ethnic-majority women and Muslim-minority women with a Moroccan or
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Turkish background in the Netherlands. It provides a comprehensive
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
assessment of ethno-religious labor market gaps and investigates how a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
relatively broad range of explanatory factors are (differently) related
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
to these gaps. We use nationally representative data from the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Netherlands Longitudinal Lifecourse Study (2009), which oversamples
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
minorities and contains high-quality measures of a comparatively broad
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
array of potential explanations. Results reveal that Muslim-minority
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
women less often have paid work, face longer job-search periods and hold
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
lower status jobs than majority women. Interestingly, minority women
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
work more hours than majority women in the Netherlands. These gaps are
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
generally smaller for the second generation than the first generation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Our results show that human capital is a key factor that is associated
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
with ethno-religious labor market gaps, but social capital, family
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
features, gender role attitudes and veiling also play a role. Gaps in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
search duration and job status can be accounted for by these explanatory
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
factors to a greater extent than those for paid work. Moreover,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
explanatory factors are related to the different gaps in different ways.'
