===== Date and country of first publication<ref>Date and country of first publication as informed by the Scopus database (December 2023).</ref>===== 1975<br> Canada; United States ===== Definition ===== Occupational sex segregation refers to the concentration of men and women in different occupations, with women being more likely to work in traditionally feminine jobs and men being more likely to work in traditionally masculine jobs. This segregation contributes to gender inequality in the labor market. There are several factors that contribute to occupational sex segregation. These include societal gender norms and stereotypes that shape career choices and expectations, discrimination and bias in hiring and promotion practices, differences in education and training opportunities, and work-family balance considerations. Occupational sex segregation has significant implications for gender equality and economic opportunities. It often leads to lower wages and fewer advancement opportunities for women, as jobs that are predominantly done by women tend to be undervalued and receive lower pay. Additionally, occupational sex segregation can perpetuate traditional gender roles and limit individuals' freedom to choose careers based on their interests and abilities rather than societal expectations. Efforts to address occupational sex segregation include promoting gender equality in education and training, implementing policies to reduce discrimination in recruitment and promotion processes, and encouraging greater work-life balance for both men and women. These efforts aim to create a more inclusive and diverse labor market, where individuals have equal opportunities for employment and advancement regardless of their gender. ===== Synonyms ===== The following terms are synonymous with occupational sex segregation: occupational sexual segregation; sex occupational segregation.
