Bringing together key theoretical, conceptual, and empirical research from around the world, Hazel Conley and Paula Koskinen Sandberg examine the ways in which female public sector workers experience intersectional discrimination in the workplace. Covering key sites of employment for women across the globe, the Handbook considers a comprehensive range of gendered public sector occupations. Chapters investigate how women's employment in public services is influenced by complex political and economic tensions, exploring core issues such as the relationship between gender, ethnicity, occupational segregation and work-life balance, flexible working, and workplace bullying; gendered pay and pension inequality; the sources of feminist activism in public sector employment; and the impact of the pandemic on feminised public sector occupations. Ultimately, the Handbook highlights that while change is possible, it will require a radical rethinking of how public services are valued and funded in society. Providing cutting-edge analysis and empirical data on gender and public sector employment, this Handbook will be an essential resource for academics and researchers interested in the role of the State as Employer. Its thought-provoking yet accessible insights into gendered employment will further benefit students of social policy, gender politics, employment relations, and the sociology of work"-- |cProvided by publisher. 650 0 Women in the civil service. 650 0 Sex discrimination in employment. 650 0 Sex role in the work environment. 650 7 Sex discrimination in employment. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01114408 650 7 Sex role in the work environment. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01114655 650 7 Women in the civil service. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01178028 700 1 Conley, Hazel, |eeditor. 700 1 Sandberg, Paula Koskinen, |eeditor. 902 960024329 |wcopy |120231024202459.0 910 |cD1702mon |d3110-99 914 (OCoLC)on1382393085 |bOCoLC |cmatch |d20231101 |eprocessed |f1382393085 960 |o1 |zUSD 961 |fCJ |m311099 |nCloth 980 18211479 |i275.00 982 |cf 984 20230823 |b075200
