Social Inequalities at Work: A Comparison of France and Britain

The project involves a comparative analysis of trends in inequalities in work in France and Britain, with a particular focus on the impact of the recent period of economic crisis. It will make use of the British Skills and Employment surveys and the French enquêtes sur les conditions de Travail. In particular, it will be concerned with whether the period of the crisis had relatively general effects across the work force or led to an accentuation of inequalities between different categories of employee, focussing on whether there were differential trends by occupational class, sex and age.
