DİJİTALLEŞMENİN AYNASINDA KADINLARIN İŞGÜCÜ PİYASASINDAKİ DURUMU

Öz

Dijitalleşme, işgücü piyasasına köklü değişiklikler getirmektedir. Çoğu analiz işgücü piyasası konularını genel hatlarıyla incelemektedir. Bu bağlamda, mavi yakalı ve beyaz yakalı çalışanların durumuna odaklanma eğilimindedirler. Pembe yakalı çalışanların sorunlarını ele alan literatür nispeten azdır. Ancak, dijitalleşmenin duygusal emeğin işin önemli bir parçası olduğu işleri ve işgücü piyasası sektörlerini ön plana çıkaracağı düşünüldüğünde, bu konunun önemli olduğuna inanıyoruz. Kadınların bundan fayda sağlayıp sağlayamayacağını ya da erkeklerin onları bu alanlardan uzaklaştırıp uzaklaştırmayacağını araştırmaya çalıştık. Bu soruyu işgücü piyasası ve yasal düzenlemeler bağlamında inceliyoruz.

WOMEN'S SITUATION ON THE LABOUR MARKET IN THE MIRROR OF DIGITALISATION

Abstract

Digitalisation is bringing fundamental changes to the labour market. Most analyses examine labour market issues in general terms. Within this, they tend to focus on the situation of blue-collar and white-collar workers. Relatively little literature deals with the problem of pink-collar workers. However, we believe that this issue is significant, as it appears that digitisation will bring to the fore those jobs and labour market sectors where emotional labour is a substantial part of the job. We sought to investigate whether women can benefit from this, or if men will displace them from these areas. We examine this question in the context of the labour market and legal regulations.
