This incisive Handbook offers a timely and critical analysis of the
gendered nature of public sector employment. 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.
