I am a PhD student in sociology at the Swedish Institute for Social Research (SOFI), Stockholm University. I am part of the research program "Traps for Women or Meaningful Jobs for the Future?"
My research interest lies in investigating the role of women in the labor force. I seek to understand the multifaceted aspects of their contributions and challenges with a particular focus on working conditions and job quality.
Challenges and opportunities in female-dominated occupations.
This program aims to enhance our understanding of why women still fall behind men in terms of wages, careers, health and social recognition. What extent inequalities can be attributed to the fact that women tend to work in female dominated occupations and in “people-oriented jobs”?
