Book excerpt: Promoting gender equality at work is not only a matter of rights; it is the smart thing to do from the perspective of inclusive growth. The Nordic region is a case in point, as it has come to represent the 11th largest economy in the world, not despite policy commitments to gender equality and social justice, but because of it. The Nordic countries have robust economies and good living conditions, where both women and men have high labour force participation rates. However, the gender pay gap is persistent and occupational segregation continues to hinder gender equality. The Nordic Gender Effect at Work briefs share the collective Nordic experience in investing in gender equality including parental leave, childcare, flexible work arrangements, leadership and equal opportunities at work, and seek to make further progress through cooperation.

Book Synopsis Parental Leave, Childcare and Gender Equality in the Nordic Countries by : Ingólfur V. Gíslason
Download or read book Parental Leave, Childcare and Gender Equality in the Nordic Countries written by Ingólfur V. Gíslason and published by Nordic Council of Ministers. This book was released on 2011 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nordic countries are often seen as pioneers in the area of gender equality. It is true that the position of women in Nordic societies is generally stronger than in the rest of the world. There is an explicit drive in most – or perhaps all – areas of society to promote and strengthen equality between women and men. In recent years, some significant changes have occurred on the family front, where men now assume a greater share of childcare, household work and other tasks that used to be primarily women's domain. Occasionally, we hear questions in the context of public debate as to whether the investments we have made to ensure equal opportunities, rights and obligations for women and men have in fact occurred at the expense of children. This concerns particularly the expansion of childcare and the system of shared parental leave. This book addresses some of these questions through an overview of political and policy developments in Nordic parental leave and childcare. In addition, the book describes research on the situation of Nordic children and their wellbeing as viewed through international comparisons.

Book Synopsis Politicising parenthood in Scandinavia by : Ellingsæter, Anne Lise
Download or read book Politicising parenthood in Scandinavia written by Ellingsæter, Anne Lise and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2006-06-07 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to respond to the needs of working parents has become a pressing social policy issue in contemporary Western Europe. This book highlights the politicising of parenthood in the Scandinavian welfare states - focusing on the relationship between parents and the state, and the ongoing renegotiations between the public and the private. Drawing on new empirical research, leading Scandinavian academics provide an up-to-date record and critical synthesis of Nordic work-family reforms since the 1990s. A broad range of policies targeting working parents is examined including: the expansion of childcare services as a social right; parental leave; cash benefits for childcare; and working hours regulations. The book also explores policy discourses, scrutinises outcomes, and highlights the similarities and differences between Nordic countries through analyses of comparative statistical data and national case studies. Set in the context of economic restructuring and the growing influence of neo-liberal ideology, each chapter addresses concerns about the impact of policies on the gender relations of parenthood. Politicising parenthood in Scandinavia is a timely contribution to ongoing policy debates on welfare state models, parenthood and gender equality. It will be of particular interest to students and teachers of welfare studies, family policy and gender studies.
Book Synopsis Parental Leave, Care Policies and Gender Equalities in the Nordic Countries by : Erla Sigurðardóttir
Download or read book Parental Leave, Care Policies and Gender Equalities in the Nordic Countries written by Erla Sigurðardóttir and published by Nordic Council of Ministers. This book was released on 2010 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What family forms are recognised in established Nordic and welfare policies? Which family values and parental models should be given political priority in a multi-ethnical society? Would part-time leave be ideal from a gender equality perspective? These were some of the questions raised at the conference 'Parental Leave, Care Policies & Gender Equalities in the Nordic Countries' in Reykjavik on 22 October 2009. The conference was arranged by the Centre of Gender Equality in Iceland on behalf of the Ministry of Social Affairs and Social Security during the Icelandic presidency of the Nordic Council of Ministers. Researchers presented their preliminary results, compared the differences between the Nordic countries and discussed how we reach the goal of a gender-equality, friendly welfare state with reconciliation between personal and professional life where we serve the needs of men, women and children. The report contains notes from the conference, speeches, workshop discussions and links to PowerPoint presentations.
Book Synopsis State of Nordic Fathers by : Cederström, Carl
Download or read book State of Nordic Fathers written by Cederström, Carl and published by Nordic Council of Ministers. This book was released on 2019-11-13 with total page 49 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fatherhood norms have changed considerably in the Nordic countries over the past decades. The sight of a father pushing his baby in a pram is no longer rare, and parental leave is no longer for mothers only. Yet parental leave is still not shared equally, despite parents having the right. Nordic fathers only use 10-30 percent of the total leave. State of Nordic Fathers examines why; and identifies possible avenues to increase fathers’ share of childcare and leave. 10 key findings reveal that fathers’ involvement is a key to gender equality and fathers who have taken long leave distinguish themselves in many respects from those who took none. State of Nordic Fathers is based on a survey capturing the attitudes of 7515 men and women, mostly parents, in Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden, on childcare work, parental leave, masculinity norms, and workplace and family relationships.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: De nordiske lande anses ofte for at være foregangslande inden for ligestillingsområdet. Det er sandt at kvinder generelt har en stærkere position i de nordiske samfund end i resten af verden. Der er en utvetydig vilje i de fleste - eller måske i alle - områder af samfundet med henblik på at fremme og styrke ligestillingen mellem kvinder og mænd. I de senere år er der sket nogle betydelige forandringer i familierne hvor mændene nu i højere grad tager del i børnepasning, huslige pligter og andre opgaver som tidligere primært var kvindernes område. Af og til stilles der i den offentlige debat spørgsmål om hvorvidt de investeringer vi har foretaget med henblik på at sikre lige muligheder, rettigheder og forpligtelser for kvinder og mænd rent faktisk er gået ud over børnene. Dette drejer sig især om udvidelsen af børnepasning og muligheden for delt forældreorlov. Denne bog behandler nogle af disse spørgsmål ved at give et overblik over den politiske udvikling inden for forældreorlov og børnepasning i Norden. Desuden giver bogen en beskrivelse af forskningen i nordiske børns situation og deres velbefindende set via internationale sammenligninger. Bogen er resultatet af et fælles nordisk projekt koordineret af redaktørerne Guðný Björk Eydal og Ingólfur V. Gíslason. Andre bidragydere er Berit Brandth, Ann-Zofie Duvander, Johanna Lammi-Taskula og Tine Rostgaard

Book excerpt: Available online: https://pub.norden.org/nord2021-036/ The Nordic countries of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden, together with Greenland, the Faroe Islands and Åland, have a long history of cooperating and sharing knowledge on gender equality. The cooperation is driven by a shared vision of a gender equitable Nordic region with equal opportunities, power, rights and obligations for all women and men, girls and boys. In Nordic Gender Equality in Figures 2021 you will find the latest gender statistics for the Nordic region. Thirty-three indicators show how far the region has come and what challenges remain in the context of demography, family and care, health, education, labor market, income, as well as power and influence. This handbook will hopefully be useful for anyone seeking reliable and comparable data on Nordic gender equality.
