“…Studies show that the persistence of NEET rate increases during periods of crisis, but not all young people are equally vulnerable in terms of educational and employment opportunities. Vulnerability relates to family background, a gender-segregated labor market and the role of nationality/ethnicity and the economic crisis has exacerbated these disadvantages (Addabbo et al , 2015, 2018; Bruno et al , 2014; O’Reilly et al , 2017; Plantenga et al , 2013).…”

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to apply an intersectional analysis to assess the impact of structural factors on the risk of being a NEET for youth in Spain. The author study if inequalities have changed after the economic crisis, once youth policies designed to improve the Spanish school-to-work transition (SWT) system were implemented. Design/methodology/approach Drawing on microdata from the Spanish Survey on Income and Living Conditions, the paper compares the probability of becoming not in employment, education or training (NEET) of young men and women born inside or outside Spain and living in different types of households. Findings Although unemployment rates have improved since the end of the crisis, the situation regarding youth employment, poverty and inequalities remains challenging. Gender and other structural differences are usually ignored in policy debates and in the measures adopted to fight youth unemployment, leading to the persistance of inequalities. Research limitations/implications The analysis illustrates new lines and trajectories in the segmentation of youth labor markets along the lines of gender, household and country of origin. Practical implications The findings highlight the need for introducing an analysis of the different sources of vulnerability in policy designs in order to promote a real and sustainable change in SWTs. Originality/value The contribution of this research to the literature on NEET and SWT is to introduce a framework that allows for the intersectional analysis of gender and other structural inequalities.

“…The paper contributes to a growing and important literature linking motherhood and female labor outcomes around the world (in developed countries: in addition to the references above, see also Addabbo et al 2015, Kuziemko et al 2018, Gallen 2018and Correll et al 2007 in transition countries, see Ganguli et al 2014 andNizalova et al 2016). It also complements research showing that excluding women from the labor force affects negatively economic performance (see, for instance, Lagarde and Ostry (2018) for an overview).…”

“…We may therefore conclude that there are forces pushing in opposite directions which affect the decisions taken by women and men, especially young women and men (Addabbo et al, 2015b). However, these forces will affect women differently, depending on their educational level, class, family situation or attachment to the labour market.…”

This paper analyses the consequences of the latest recession and austerity measures for the working and living conditions of women and men in Spain, as well as the extent to which gender and other related inequalities are being modified or aggravated. Women are taking on additional responsibilities in terms of unpaid care work due to welfare cuts and privatization, while still facing discrimination in the labour market and in accessing resources and decision -making centres. This refamiliarization of care, together with increasing job insecurity, could have a major negative impact on the well -being of women and their present and future opportunities, which may endanger the fragile gains achieved in terms of gender equality.
