contents Global economic crisis, gender and employment: the impact and policy response Naoko Otobe Analyses the gender dimensions of the impact of the global economic crisis on the world of work, highlighting the overall higher vulnerabilities and insecurity of women's work than men's. Examines the gender-differentiated regional global and regional trends of unemployment and vulnerable employment between 2007 and 2009, drawing on the published available ILO data and information.
