dc.description.abstract | Horizontal gender segregation divides the labor market into ‘feminine’ and ‘masculine’ occupations. However, some individuals choose occupational paths which are not consistent with the expectations for their gender, thereby becoming a minority in their occupational group. We propose the joint term ‘gender occupational minorities’ to describe their situation. We aim to supplement previous research with a combined analysis of the two gender groups, enabling a more general perspective on the meaning of gender in the labor market as well as a comparison of how similar mechanisms work in opposite gender contexts. Based on Pierre Bourdieu’s practical principles of gender occupational segregation, women working in IT/new technologies and men working in childcare/education were chosen as the project’s target groups. In this paper, we focus on the experience of being a gender occupational minority on the Polish labor market as well as on the role of gender occupational minorities within the occupational group. | en |
dc.description.abstract | Horyzontalna segregacja płciowa oznacza istnienie na rynku pracy zawodów stereotypowo „kobiecych” i „męskich”. Niektóre osoby wybierają jednak ścieżkę zawodową niezgodnie z oczekiwaniami dla ich płci, stając się tym samym mniejszością płciową w swojej grupie zawodowej. Autorka proponuje wspólny termin „zawodowe mniejszości płciowe”, aby opisać ich sytuację. Celem przedstawionego projektu było uzupełnienie wcześniejszych badań o łączną analizę sytuacji kobiet w zawodach zmaskulinizowanych oraz mężczyzn w zawodach sfeminizowanych i umożliwienie globalnego spojrzenia na znaczenie płci na rynku pracy, a także porównanie, w jaki sposób podobne mechanizmy działają w odwrotnych pod względem dominującej płci kontekstach grup zawodowych. Opierając się na praktycznych zasadach segregacji zawodowej według Pierre’a Bourdieu, do udziału w badaniu zostały zaproszone kobiety pracujące w IT/nowych technologiach i mężczyźni pracujący w opiece nad dziećmi/edukacji. W niniejszym artykule skupiono się na doświadczeniu bycia płciową mniejszością zawodową na polskim rynku pracy oraz na rolach i zadaniach tych osób w ich w grupie zawodowej. | pl |
