Covid-19 and gendered labor market inequalities (CAme_BaG)

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic and the associated measures to contain the virus led to major changes in the world of work and created particular challenges for parents. As part of a joint project with the Institute of Economic and Social Research of the Hans Böckler Foundation (WSI), we are examining the medium- and long-term gender-specific effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on employment, income, and careers. While the research team at the WSI analyses observational data from the HBS Employment Survey and the IAB-PASS, the research team at the WZB is focusing on the collection and analysis of experimental data.
