PhD GTA Funded Studentship in "Women workers’ experiences in the gig economy: security, flexibility, labour process and pay/conditions"

 

The successful candidate will investigate women workers’ experiences, including issues of security, flexibility, labour process and pay/conditions within the gig economy. What are the processes through which women workers manage their productive and reproductive labour within this ‘flexible’ mode of employment? How can an intersectional perspective inform our understanding of women’s agency and constraints within a polarised labour market? To what extent do existing regulatory mechanisms respond to the challenges posed by changing contemporary landscapes of employment? Applicants with a background in sociology, industrial relations, business studies, labour geography and gender studies are all eligible to apply. We also welcome applications from candidates with postgraduate qualifications who have experience in relevant practice environments. Deadline – Monday 26 Feb 2018. For more information, see https://www.findaphd.com/search/ProjectDetails.aspx?PJID=94154

If you would like to discuss your application, please contact Dr Sundari Anitha ([log in to unmask]) 

 

Please circulate it among your networks/students.

 

Best wishes
