Gender and Nordic welfare viability in economic crises Anita Nyberg, Gender Studies, Stockholm University

It is often said that in economic recessions, men lose comparatively more jobs than women. The reason is the gender segregated labour market, with a greater concentration of male workers in cyclically sensitive sectors, such as construction, manufacturing and lately also the male dominated branches of the financial sector. In contrast, women are over-represented in more stable areas such as care, health, education and the public sector in general. Research has found that in the EU, men experienced comparatively higher employment losses than women in countries where gender segregation was greater during the recession of the late 2000s. However, I would like to argue that women might not be so well protected in economic recessions by public employment as we might believe, which is related to how er measure economic recessions and unemployment. 07/04/2019 /Anita Nyberg, Gender Studies

The fact that women are affected later than men in an economic recession and that the whole picture of unemployment is not taken into consideration means that the effects on women’s employment and unemployment are underestimated compared to men’s. 07/04/2019 /Anita Nyberg, Gender Studies

Gender mainstreaming/gender budgeting is important, but we also have to look for male norms in the concepts used and how things are measured such as unemployment and the timing of economic recessions in relation to gender in order to better understand the gendered effects. 07/04/2019 /Anita Nyberg, Gender Studies
