Abstract

Using microdata from the Labour Force Survey, this research analyzes
occupational segregation in the Spanish labour market between 1999
and 2011from a double perspective. First, it performs a one-dimensional
study of segregation, so it considers segregation by gender and
segregation by nationality separately. Second, a two-dimensional study
considers both manifestations of segregation. The study reveals that
nationality is a relevant variable in explaining the evolution of gender
segregation. It also reveals that immigrant workers show an increasing
trend in contributing to segregation, being immigrant women the group
with greatest degree of vulnerability in the labour market.
