abstract: 'Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to empirically analyse gender
differences in job quality during the first years of the economic crisis
in Spain.
Design/methodology/approach - The paper uses microdata from the Quality
of Working Life Survey. A representative sample of 5,381 and 4,925
Spanish employees (men and women) in 2008 and 2010, and a two-stage
structural equation modelling (SEM) are empirically tested.
Findings - The study revealed three main results. First, the improvement
in job quality was more favourable to men than it was to women. Second,
the gender differences in the explanation of job quality increased
considerably in favour of men. Third, this increase in gender-related
job inequality in favour of men is explained by a worsening of 4 of the
5 explanatory dimensions thereof: intrinsic job quality; work
organisation and workplace relationships; working conditions, work
intensity and health and safety at work; and extrinsic rewards. Only
inequality in the work-life balance dimension remained stable.
Research limitations/implications - The availability of more detailed
microdata for other countries and new statistical methods for analysing
causal relationships, particularly SEM-PLS, would allow new approaches
to be taken.
Social implications - Public policy measures required to fight against
gender inequalities are discussed.
Originality/value - The paper contributes to enrich the understanding of
the multidimensional and gender-related determinants of job quality and,
in particular, of studying the effects of the first years of the
economic crisis.'
