feminization of work  

Definición

  • The feminization of work refers to the processes through which the composition of an occupation changes such that the proportion of women exceeds the proportion of men. Many occupations are segregated by gender, with men predominating in jobs having higher pay and women holding the majority of jobs with lower wages.
