Join us for an engaging SER Café event featuring a thought-provoking discussion with recent Socio-Economic Review authors, Matthew Clair (Stanford University) and Rachel Kim (Harvard University).

The paper by Matthew Clair and Sophia Hunt, “Moral reconciling at career launch: politics, race, and occupational choice?“, explores how young adults justify entering morally conflicting careers through narratives of lifting up, leveraging out, and leaning in. Rachel Kim investigates how tech workers’ trust in corporate ethics programs shapes their moral evaluations of their employers and work in “The internal effects of corporate “tech ethics”: how technology professionals evaluate their employers’ crises of moral legitimacy“.

The event will take place on Friday, November 14th, 2025, 8:30 AM Pacific Time / 11:30 AM Eastern Time / 5:30 p.m. Central European Time.

SER Cafe: Gender disparities in the workplace on 1/24 

On By Neha JangetiIn AnnouncementsLeave a comment

Join us for an engaging SER Café event featuring a thought-provoking discussion with SER authors, Anne-Kathrin Kronberg, Anna Gerlach, Marta Fana, Davide Villani, and Martina Bisello.

The paper by Kronberg and Gerlach, “Off to a slow start: which workplace policies can limit gender pay gaps across firm tenure?”, explores the pressing issue of how workplace policies impact gender pay gaps over employee tenure. Fana, Villani and Bisello investigate gender gaps in workplace power and control, finding that women face more control than men within the same job, even after accounting for factors like education and seniority in “Gender gaps in power and control within jobs”.

Together, these papers offer compelling insights into the interplay between workplace practices, organizational culture, and policy interventions in perpetuating or mitigating gender inequalities. As workplace equity remains a pivotal issue, these studies provide a deeper understanding of the structural barriers and potential pathways toward closing gender gaps.

The event will take place on Friday, January 24th, at 8AM PST/ 11AM EST/ 5PM CET. Register at this link!
