Emancipatiemonitor 2012

The 'Emancipation Monitor 2012' ('Emancipatiemonitor 2012') presents a picture of the emancipation process in the Netherlands. It describes the position of women and men in a wide range of domains of society, presenting the most up-to-date figures on education, paid employment, combining work and care, income, senior positions and safety. It also looks specifically at the position of young women and men. A number of themes are also considered in more depth: low-educated women, flexible working, role division between partners, managerial support for emancipation and the background to perceived lack of safety by women. The 'Emancipation Monitor' is a joint publication by the Netherlands Institute for Social Research | SCP and Statistics Netherlands (CBS). It is published at the request of the Emancipation Department of the Dutch Ministry of Education, Culture and Science.
