  • Mapping the Determinants of Female Employment: Labour Market Areas and Spatial Spillovers

    Open AccessRaquel Simón-Albert, Raquel Simón‐Albert et al.ARTICLETijdschrift voor Economische en…2026References: 76

    This paper examines the territorial determinants of female employment rates using labour market areas (LMAs) – functional units based on commuting patterns – to mitigate the Modifiable Area Unit Problem (MAUP). Drawing on detailed Spanish census microdata and spatial econometrics, we find that male unemployment negatively affects female employment through a discouraged worker effect , whereas higher shares of part‐time jobs, medium household inco…

  • Is multidimensional precarious employment higher for women

    Open AccessInes P Murillo Huertas, Inés P Murillo-Huertas et al.ARTICLEJournal of Industrial Relations2023

    This article examines the relative employment situation of female employees from a novel perspective based on the construction of multidimensional indicators of employment precariousness that allow examining its scale and nature. The evidence obtained for Spain shows that both the intensity and incidence of precarious employment are significantly higher for women, to the point that half of the women are multidimensionally precarious (with an inci…

  • Gender Differences in Commuting: New Evidence from Spain

    Open AccessJosé María Casado, Raquel Simón-Albert et al.ARTICLESocial Indicators Research2023Cited by: 8References: 103

    This article examines the origins of the shorter commutes typically observed for women, a phenomenon that contributes to the poorer work outcomes they typically suffer. The analysis extends previous research on the gender gap in commuting by using econometric decomposition techniques that are novel in this field which, combined with a Spanish nationally representative survey that allows for an exhaustive control of the different elements identifi…

  • Reassessing the commuting penalty for immigrants: New evidence from Spain

    Open AccessJosé María Casado, Raquel Simón-Albert et al.ARTICLETransportation2022

    This article examines the differences in commuting length between native and immigrant employees in Spain, a relevant issue since immigrants' longer commuting times may, among other factors, reflect an imperfect spatial matching of their labour supply and demand with negative implications for their relative labour outcomes and their individual well-being. The research differentiates immigrants according to their origin and is based on a rich, nat…

  • Exploring the effects of commuting on workers’ satisfaction: Evidence for Spain

    Hipólito Simón, José María Casado et al.ARTICLERegional Studies2018Cited by: 8References: 3

    This paper examines the relationship between commuting time and satisfaction with different life domains. Based on data for Spain, the results show that commuting time exerts a negative impact on all areas of satisfaction for male and female workers, and that longer commutes affect women’s satisfaction disproportionally. Using public transport and walking/cycling worsen this effect, as do higher degrees of urbanization and population density. Acc…

  • El bienestar en España: Una perspectiva de largo plazo, 1850–1991

    Open AccessAntonio Escudero, Hipólito Simón et al.ARTICLERevista de Historia Económica /…2003Cited by: 1References: 26

    Los historiadores económicos han estimado tradicionalmente el bienestar en términos de renta por persona. Durante la última década se han publicado, sin embargo, diversos trabajos que utilizan otros indicadores. Siguiendo esta línea de investigación, el artículo contrasta cuatro indicadores del bienestar en España (renta per capita , Índice de Desarrollo Humano, Índice Físico de Calidad de Vida y estatura), dos de los cuales son inéditos (IDH e I…
