Re: Conferences in the UK or Europe April/May 2002

["Harry Veeder" <eo200@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Are there any gender studies on the period of time
spent unemployed?  i.e  Which gender on average spends
more time unemployed?

My informal research seems to suggest that men
spend more time unemployed then women. I am not interested
in a cultural or sexist explanation of the difference
if it is real. At this point I am just interested in
the facts.
