abstract: 'Although the dramatic increase in female labour force participation in

  recent decades has been connected to significant changes in economic

  opportunities for women, gender disparities in the labour market persist

  in many forms. This article seeks to assess whether higher gender

  differentials in European labour markets are directly related to poor

  economic conditions. To this end, the results of a composite indicator

  designed and developed by the authors in a previous study are updated

  and three new composite indicators are constructed for a separate

  analysis of female and male labour market conditions and gender gap for

  paid employment.'
