This afternoon at #WES @wesjnl.bsky.social conference, Kim Allen and I will be presenting work on our longitudinal mixed methods side hustles project, focussing on the gendered dimensions.

I am super proud to see this article on underemployment and mental health published in @healthpromint.bsky.social. We did a lot of good work theorising the relationship between time—and skills-related underemployment and mental health using HILDA. #Sociology #underemployment #mentalhealth

Thrilled our project on re-skilling and the future work was funded by the ARC. @davidjbissell.bsky.social @leahruppanner.bsky.social #sociology

🚨New article in New Technology, Work + Employment about the gender pay gap in the Australian gig economy. The gap increased by 5 percentage points during COVID-19. Why? Gender platform segregation. Read more here - open access: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... #sociology #gender #gigeconomy

I am elated that our ARC Discovery Project on young people and side hustles was funded today! Hugely important issue as young people increasingly have to combine work with other entrepreneurial activities to make a living AND a future. I'm looking forward to working with Dave + Kim. #Sociology

this is such a great visualisation of Claudia Goldin's work on the pay gap by the Nobel Prize people
