We are a team of economics researchers at the London School of Economics focused on improving representation of women and minorities at work.
Why women’s careers stagnate when children arrive, while men continue to thrive? What is the cost of excluding talented women from the labour market? The Hub’s researchers have some answers
These are the latest findings from the Hub’s researchers at the London School of Economics
We are actively looking to partner with firms and governments to create a more inclusive workplace. If you are interested please reach out to us at hubequalrep@lse.ac.uk or book at 15mn meeting with one of our directors here.

Really interesting evidence here that women are held back, however good they are at their jobs, because men are deemed to have more "potential". We should be looking at measurable achievement, not potential, which is fuzzy and prone to bias. #theauthoritygap https://twitter.com/bopinion/status/1463328504918024195
❓ Is there a gender-based promotion gap? Are there too many women who do well on the job, but are not considered seriously for career advancement? 💡 Some new supporting evidence has come to light https://trib.al/stgDbLQ

This is a very good point. If #SharedParentalLeave is a Good Thing for the PAYE employed, why not the legions of self-employed? Are they not worthy? https://twitter.com/samirashackle/status/1463785083211595779
It’s as if the government forgets that self-employed parents exist. It’s a separate point, but I’m still astonished there’s no equivalent to maternity allowance for self-employed fathers, nor any equivalent to shared parental leave if you’re both self-employed. https://twitter.com/LexyTopping/status/1463496547614744581
My warm congratulations to Magdalena Andersson on becoming Sweden's first female Prime Minister! Europe's group of female leaders continues to grow. All the best for your new role.
