Working around the family: is there a gender divide?
The article by Linda L. Brennan, titled "Working Around the Family: Is There a Gender Divide?", explores the persistent imbalance in how working parents manage family and career responsibilities. Drawing on research by David Maume (2006), the study analyzes data from the 1992 National Study of the Changing Workforce, revealing that women disproportionately bear the burden of adjusting work efforts—such as reducing hours, declining promotions, or refusing travel—to accommodate family needs. Despite the rise of dual-career households, "gender traditionalism" prevails, with men in professional/managerial roles making significantly fewer work sacrifices than their female counterparts. The findings highlight challenges for organizations promoting egalitarian, family-friendly policies, as ingrained societal norms often override formal workplace support. The article calls for updated longitudinal research to assess whether modern trends (e.g., telecommuting, parental leave policies) have mitigated these disparities, emphasizing the gap between egalitarian ideals and actual behavior.
