Abstract | "In important fields of social life in Germany women are still not yet represented according to their share in total population. Women's approach to life planning is often different from that of men. Women tend to choose different jobs and university majors than their male contemporaries. If there are children to be looked after, it is in most cases the mothers who cut back on their employment in order to reconcile family and job responsibilities. At the beginning of the 16th legislative period of the German Bundestag an intense discussion has begun about how to make our society more family-friendly and how to ensure equal opportunities by creating conditions that enable men and women to reconcile family life with work obligations more easily. How will women's life expectancy evolve in the next few decades? What jobs or majors do women choose in contrast to men? Is it true that part-time work is purely a women's domain? Do women earn less than men in the same job and, if yes, why? Women are gainfully employed to a smaller extent than men, so what about women's financial situation? Are women sick more frequently than men? How do women participate in public life? These are just some of the aspects dealt with in the broad thematic range of this book, which is to contribute to a comprehensive presentation of women's current life circumstances in Germany." Die Untersuchung enthält quantitative Daten. Forschungsmethode: Dokumentation. Die Untersuchung bezieht sich auf den Zeitraum 1994 bis 2004. (author's abstract, IAB-Doku). |
