contents Occupational segregation of female and male immigrants in Europe: accounting for cross-country differences Amaia Palencia-Esteban (Author) The paper studies occupational segregation by gender and immigration status in the European Union using the 2005–2019 European Labour Force Survey. Compared to prior studies, it quantifies separately the levels of segregation that female and male immigrants experience in each country. Overall, male immigrants have lower occupational segregation than their female counterparts and the second-generation is less segregated than the first one. Segregation is generally lower in western-northern Europe and higher in the south-east. The counterfactual analysis reveals that immigrants’ characteristics explain a small part of these cross-country differences. The institutional setting, integration policies or country-specific norms might play a major role. 10.1111/ilr.12207 DOI https://doi.org/10.1111/ilr.12207 publication.journalArticle
