Can bridging programmes strengthen employability
Foreign-trained professionals face barriers to occupational reintegration in the destination country. These barriers may be formal, such as a lack of professional accreditation from sectorial authorities or statutory language requirements, or informal, such as social closures, in-group preferences, and discrimination. Bridging programmes aim to equip foreign-trained professionals with the credentials and skills required in local labour markets. W…
Pathways to occupational inclusion in host societies
Immigrants’ access to relevant jobs is crucial for social integration and better life chances. For migrants in regulated professions, occupational reintegration depends on accreditation of previous learning by national, sectorial authorities. These migrants face complex systems that both enable and hinder occupational reintegration. In this article, we examine skilled migrants’ pathways to their vocations in Norway and Sweden, with a special emph…
How do second-generation ethnic minority professionals navigate towards higher-earner segments
Payment problems through a social class lens
Borrowing is an integral part of most households' economy and is a commonplace to raise one's consumption potential. But it also brings the risk of payment problems. Borrowing, and any subsequent payment problems, has a social class dimension, as social class relates to consumption patterns, wealth and earnings. We apply a Bourdieuan class analysis to investigate differences in the onset of payment problems among the adult Norwegian population, a…
National Policies Supporting Gender Equality in Academic Careers
National policies used to advance gender equality in academic careers in higher education in Sweden, Norway, and Finland, are examined based on publicly available documents from 1990 to 2023.Drawing on theoretical perspectives from public policy research and feminist political theory, we investigate to what extent policies are likely to lead to organizational transformation, in line with the intentions of gender mainstreaming.The analysis maps th…
Interdisciplinarity and communication across research employing different methods under the loupe
In this article, we present a bibliometric analysis of studies examining the consequences of boundary-crossing information communication technology (ICT) use, e.g., the use of ICT to conduct tasks across the work and family domains. We explore main contributors, disciplines, and topics of focus, as well as knowledge gaps, and lines of communication within this interdisciplinary field. Our aim is to explore knowledge production and knowledge excha…
Unionization, licensure and workplace variation in pay inequality between immigrants and natives
Organizational research has revealed considerable variation in immigrant–native pay inequalities across workplace contexts. However, less is known about how broader labor market institutions intersect in the local dynamics of wage setting between employees of immigrant and native backgrounds. We argue that union density and higher shares of employees in licensed occupations in workplaces constrain organizational opportunity structures for unequal…
Relationship between payment problems and health
Previous studies have found a solid correlation between payment problems and health, and a large body of literature has recognised the impact of debt burden on ill health. However, few have looked at the reversed causality-the impact of health on over-indebtedness and payment problems. In this article, we investigate whether or not a person with mental and physical health challenges is more likely to experience debt enforcement, and we take a ste…
Career choices after completion of vocational training
The initial career choice that young people make can become subject to change as individuals gain professional and personal experience. We study career choices made after vocational training and investigate the propensity to change occupation or obtain a tertiary degree among licensed practical nurses (LPNs) in Norway. To explain second-order career choices, we emphasise social and ethnic origin and early-career employment conditions. The results…
Advancing women's representation in top academic positions - what works
Which gender equality measures do Nordic universities use, and to what extent are the measures effective in increasing the share of women in top academic positions? Based on theories that distinguish between actor and structure-oriented measures, and between strategies of inclusion and transformation, we identified four types of measures: career enhancing measures offered for women, training and awareness-raising measures, organizational responsi…
Gender and Globalization of Academic Labor Markets
This article investigates the impact of the globalized academic labor market on the composition of teaching and research staff at Swedish, Norwegian, and Finnish universities. Using national statistical data from 2012 to 2018, the authors examine how globalization has influenced the proportion of women across career stages, particularly in STEM fields, and how gender intersects with country of origin within academic hierarchies. The findings reve…
Fra loddtrekning til søknadsbasert opptak
Legestudiet preges av høy sosial reproduksjon og sosialt skjev rekruttering. Legers arbeidsmarked og karrierer, derimot, viser at legene er en egalitær yrkesgruppe med små, interne forskjeller. Det tyder på at høy sosial bakgrunn først og fremst gir et konkurransefortrinn ved inntak og ikke i arbeid. Legearbeidsmarkedet er i endring, og det går mot et overskudd av leger i Norge. Helsemyndighetene har, som en konsekvens av økt etterspørsel etter t…
Barriers to Access
European labour markets have become increasingly accessible to foreign workers because of increased global migration and the implementation of international labour mobility agreements. Yet, skilled immigrants have lower occupational attainment. The regulated occupations, however, are more inclusive of immigrants than unregulated occupations. This article investigates immigrants' likelihood of gaining access to licensed occupations in Norway, as w…
The Sheltering Effect of Occupational Closure? Consequences for Ethnic Minorities' Earnings
It has been widely documented that immigrants receive lower earnings than the majority of the population in most Western countries. Previous research has pointed to various forms of discrimination that affect immigrants' wage rates. The authors discuss whether the source of this wage inequality can be found at the occupational level. In this article, the authors argue that occupational closures reduce within-occupation wage inequality. To test th…
Incentive Effects of Cash Benefits among Young People. A Natural Experiment from Norway
Prior research on active labour market programmes (ALMPs) for young people has revealed either no effect or negative effects on transition rates into employment. In addition to accessing the programme content, participation in ALMPs bestows the right to a supplementary benefit. Yet, the direct effect of this benefit on the use and outcome of ALMPs remains largely unknown. We study the effects of a Norwegian policy that pays much higher benefits t…
Are You Moving Up or Falling Short? An Inquiry of Skills-based Variation in Self-perceived Employability among Norwegian Employees
This article investigates how educational level, job-related skills and employers’ support for competence development jointly determine Norwegian employees’ expectations of maintaining employment and career advancement. The data were collected in 2010 and 2013, and they comprise a representative sample of Norwegian employees. In contrast to previous research on self-perceived employability, this study divides expectations of advancement and conti…
Occupational closure and wages in Norway
Recent literature has pointed to occupational closure in order to explain wage inequality between occupations. The basic argument of occupational closure is that average occupational wages are higher in closed occupations because these occupations are better able to establish and maintain institutional barriers to access. In this study we analyse occupational closure and its wage effects in Norway by matching newly gathered occupational data on f…
Simply a Matter of Being Male? Nurses’ Employment Outcomes in the Norwegian Labour Market
The gendered segregation of the labour market is well documented: men tend to be employed in more prestigious and powerful jobs compared with women, even within female-dominated occupations. The research that describes the male privilege in nursing rarely problematizes, however, that these men belong to the majority ethnic population. Qualitative studies from the US and Norway show that men of minority ethnic origin experience discriminatory prac…
Ethnic Minority Students' Career Expectations in Prospective Professions
This study sheds light on how ethnic minority students in Norway seek to navigate occupational opportunities after graduating from professional bachelor programmes. Students' career ambitions and career expectations are investigated. The study adopts a comparative approach and includes students of Asian origin and western minority students as well as majority students. The findings show that ethnic minorities have higher career ambitions than maj…
Stratification in the Medical profession
Previous studies of internal stratification in medicine suggest that non-White foreign-trained physicians fill the bottom level of the specialist hierarchy. However, in this study we use administrative registers for majority and non-Western physicians in Norway and find that non-Western physicians acquire spe-cialisation in the same volume as majority colleagues, are equally likely to enter several of the high prestige specialties and are not del…
Early-career Income Trajectories among Physicians and Dentists
This article analyses early-career income trajectories among non-Western immigrant and native-born physicians and dentists in Norway. Registered data comprising all medical and dental graduates from Norwegian universities dating from 1990 through 2005 are utilized. The results show that, on average, immigrants and native-born individuals display similar income trajectories; however, they do have somewhat different earning profiles. Among employed…
