@article { , title = {Gender, transformation and employment in central eastern Europe}, abstract = {This article discusses gender and employment in 10 central eastern European countries: eight new EU member states and two candidate countries. The context is set with demographic, economic, and labour-market trends, including population, GDP, and gender disaggregated employment, activity, and unemployment rates. Changes in horizontal and vertical gender segregation are then addressed, especially the uneven gender effect on employment patterns of sectoral restructuring during capitalist transformation. Lastly, the gender pay gap is examined, and compared to patterns in western Europe. The article concludes with a discussion of the advances, but also the limits of harmonization through EU gender-equality legislation. © 2005 SAGE (London, Thousand Oaks, CA and New Delhi).}, doi = {10.1177/0959680105053964}, issn = {0959-6801}, issue = {2}, journal = {European Journal of Industrial Relations}, pages = {213-230}, publicationstatus = {Published}, publisher = {SAGE Publications}, url = {https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/1048706}, volume = {11}, keyword = {Human Resources, Work and Employment, gender, employment, Central Eastern Europe}, year = {2005}, author = {Pollert, Anna} }
