“…Some studies find that people in more feminized occupations have characteristics that are likely to deter lead migration and to promote tied migration. For example, they earn less (England et al, 1994) and have low levels of education (Polachek, 1981), labour market experience (Duncan and Hoffman, 1979), job specialization and on-the-job training (Tam, 1997), and high rates of part-time work (Blackwell, 2001). Therefore, any effects of the sex-segregation of occupations on family migration may be caused by compositional differences in the personal endowments of workers in different occupational sex-types.…”

This paper examines the effects of occupational characteristics on family migration within Britain. For the first time in the literature, we explicitly theorise and later test the impact of the sex composition of husbands' and wives' occupations on mobility decisions. The empirical analysis consists of panel regression models estimated on dyadic couple‐level information from the British Household Panel Survey combined with occupational‐level data from the UK Labour Force Survey. Results suggest that some occupational characteristics are significantly associated with family migration, whereas occupational sex segregation has limited impact. Although working in female‐dominated occupations is related to a lower propensity to become a lead mover and a higher propensity to become a tied mover, these associations are mediated by the socio‐economic and occupational characteristics of the spouses.

“…1 The analysis of gender differences in both, training decisions made by individuals and by employers is a central aim of the present paper. 1 Duncan and Hoffman (1979) examine training determinants of four subgroups and underline that the analysis of the determinants of training is essential. Investigation of the latter fundamentally contributes, amongst other things, to the analysis of the gender wage gap which has continuously been of outstanding high importance over decades.…”
