===== Definition ===== 

Intra occupational segregation refers to the segregation or division of workers within a specific occupation or industry based on certain characteristics such as gender, race, ethnicity, or other socio-demographic factors. This form of segregation occurs when certain groups of workers are concentrated in specific roles or positions within an occupation, often due to discriminatory practices or systemic biases.

For example, in some professions such as nursing or elementary teaching, women may be more concentrated in lower-paid or less prestigious positions within these occupations, while men are more likely to hold leadership roles or higher-paid positions. This form of segregation can contribute to overall wage disparities and limited opportunities for career advancement for certain groups of workers.

Intra occupational segregation can result from various factors, including historical and cultural norms, biases in hiring and promotion practices, lack of diversity and inclusion policies, and overall societal inequalities. Efforts to reduce intra-occupational segregation often involve promoting diversity and inclusion within workplaces, addressing biases in recruitment and promotion processes, and advocating for policies and practices that ensure equal opportunities for all workers within an occupation or industry.
