abstract: 'This article examines the differential impact of labour market
|
|
|
|
institutions on women and men. It carries out longitudinal analyses
|
|
|
|
using repeat cross-sectional data from the EU Labour Force Survey
|
|
|
|
1992-2007 as well as time series data that measure institutional change
|
|
|
|
over the same period. The results contribute to the literature on
|
|
|
|
gendered employment, adding important insights into the impact of labour
|
|
|
|
market institutions over and above family policies that have been the
|
|
|
|
focus of most prior studies on the topic. We find differential effects
|
|
|
|
of institutional change on male and female outcome. Our findings
|
|
|
|
challenge the neo-classical literature on the topic. While our results
|
|
|
|
suggest that men benefit more clearly than women from increases in
|
|
|
|
employment protection, we do not find support for the neo-classical
|
|
|
|
assertion that strong trade unions decrease female employment. Instead,
|
|
|
|
increasing union strength is shown to have beneficial effects for both
|
|
|
|
men''s and women''s likelihood of being employed on the standard
|
|
|
|
employment contract. Furthermore, in line with other researchers, we
|
|
|
|
find that rising levels of in kind state support to families improve
|
|
|
|
women''s employment opportunities. (C) 2014 International Sociological
