The gender pay gap exists in the gig economy but women gig workers seem to be okay with the pay conditions - it is security they have an issue with. More research needed #Sociology #GigEconomy https://thesociologicalreview.org/magazine/february-2024/work/system-update/
System update: The gender pay gap goes digital

The digital platform economy has failed to change the gender inequalities of the traditional analogue workplace, writes Brendan Churchill.

🚨New article in New Technology, Work + Employment about the gender pay gap in the Australian gig economy. The gap increased by 5 percentage points during COVID-19. Why? Gender platform segregation.

Almost everyday there is a searing take on the modern university in the news media. Today’s piece on faculties in @SatPaper is no exception: https://www.thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news/education/2023/08/26/the-destruction-university-faculties
The destruction of university faculties

Late in 2017, a scandal broke out across Britain’s university sector. The vice-chancellor of the University of Bath, Dame Glynis Breakwell, was found to be receiving a salary close to double that of her counterparts at other UK universities. The figure was £468,000 (then about $820,000). The outcry – both within her university and more broadly – was so intense Breakwell was forced into a humiliating resignation.

Our new article in Social Sciences Research is finally out. The paper looks at change in time spent on housework, childcare and work time across cohorts of parents. Change is greatest for more recent cohorts of fathers.

After returning from parental leave (with my DECRA project on pause) at the end of last year, I have FINALLY updated my project website. The project is all about emotional labour in hair and beauty salons, and it's currently halfway through. Check it out, I'm very proud of this self-made website!
