(Non-)discrimination against female job applicants

A new IDEA study by Vojtěch Bartoš investigates possible discrimination against female job applicants in the form of a lower probability of getting invited to a job interview in the years when either it is expected that the female applicants will soon go on maternity leave or when they have young children which might limit their working capacity.

Summary of the study is available here.
