The study contributes to Priority E Action 2 of the Strategy, which states that ‘the Commission will develop knowledge on the gender dimensions of human trafficking, including the gender consequences of the various forms of trafficking and potential differences in the vulnerability of men and women to victimisation and its impact on them.’ Its specific objectives and tasks are to address: the ‘gender dimension of vulnerability, recruitment, and victimisation’; ‘gender issues related to traffick...

Es besteht nach wie vor Konsens darüber, dass die Arbeitsmarktsegmente in Bezug auf die Beschäftigungsstabilität, die Integration von Arbeitskräften in betriebliche Wertschöpfungsprozesse sowie hinsichtlich der Beschäftigungsrisiken unterschiedlich strukturiert sind. Auf der Basis von qualitativen Intensivfallstudien in unterschiedlichen Segmenten der Verlagsindustrie und der Analyse der betrieblichen Nutzungsformen von Solo-Selbstständigkeit wird gezeigt, dass die konzeptionell scharfe Trennung von internen und externen Arbeitsmärkten nicht aufrechtzuerhalten ist. So wird externe Beschäftigung zum Teil sehr arbeitnehmerähnlich und langfristig in allen betrieblichen Kernbereichen genutzt. Die heterogene Integration in betriebliche Wertschöpfungsprozesse führt zu neuen spezifischen Markt-und Prekarisierungsrisiken für Solo-Selbstständige. Die Befunde deuten dabei auf einen generellen Funktionswandel von externen Arbeitsmärkten hin.

In the German economy, as elsewhere, employment protections limiting dismissals constitute a key regulatory mechanism. Dismissal restrictions pose constraints on employment strategies, by blocking the ability of firms to easily adjust employment levels in response to market downturns and uncertainties. In the face of such constraints, firms in protected employment economies like Germany have found alternatives through more flexible use of internal labour markets. Labour market theory has pointed to the benefits of internal employment and the long-term employment relations they imply for reducing transaction costs and moral hazards, especially in skilled work contexts (Marsden 1999). Research on comparative capitalism has viewed employment protections as ‘beneficial constraints’ (Streeck 1997), since firms are forced to abandon strategies of hiring and firing (numerical flexibility) in favour of training and rotating staff to gain (functional) flexibility. Employment protections and the flexible internal labour markets they create contribute strongly to Germany’s successful alignment of strong economic performance with relatively high employment and social security for workers, rendering Germany one of the best cases of the coordinated market variety of capitalism (Hall and Soskice 2001).

Sexarbeit sprechen kann. Der Beitrag zeichnet zentrale theoretische Positionen und neue Kontroversen nach und stellt Bezuge zu Varianten der staatlichen Regulierung von Prostitution/Sexarbeit her, die daran anknupfen.

Through the expansion of networks of temporary agency branches internationally, often in the wake of foreign direct investments by home‐country client firms, the field research reported in this chapter shows that temporary staffing agencies now play a central role in the recruitment and placement of foreign labour, in areas such as administrative, sales and technical work. The cross‐border staffing services of private intermediaries are compared in two world regions, the European Union (EU) and East and Southeast Asia, and at multiple levels of analysis. The inter‐regional comparison shows that regulatory developments differ sharply between the EU and East and Southeast Asia, yet staffing firms in both world regions practice surprisingly similar forms of cross‐border recrui...

Gender Equality EU law and policy on gender equality is legally based on the competence found in ... more Gender Equality EU law and policy on gender equality is legally based on the competence found in the Treaty of Lisbon (2007). The high-level aims of gender equality and equal treatment are specified in the Treaty on the European Union (TEU). The division of responsibilities between the EU level and Member State level, taking into account the principles of subsidiarity and proportionality, is specified in the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. Article 2 of the Treaty on the European Union concerns the fundamental values of the EU and includes equality between women and men: The Union is founded on the values of respect for human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality, the rule of law and respect for human rights, including the rights of persons belonging to minorities. These values are common to the Member States in a society in which pluralism, non-discrimination, tolerance, justice, solidarity and equality between women and men prevail. Article 3 of the Treaty on the European Union further concerns both equality between women and men, combating social exclusion and discrimination, and the promotion of social justice and protection: The Union's aim is to promote peace, its values and the well-being of its peoples… It shall combat social exclusion and discrimination, and shall promote social justice and protection, equality between women and men, solidarity between generations and protection of the rights of the child. Article 8 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union specifies that both the EU level and the Member State level should not only aim to eliminate inequalities, but also to promote equality. The reference to 'all' the 'activities' of the EU provides the legal basis for the strategy of 'gender mainstreaming' in which gender equality is to be mainstreamed into all areas of EU activities, including policy formation and implementation: In all its activities, the Union shall aim to eliminate inequalities, and to promote equality, between men and women. There are several EU Directives on gender equality, which are binding on all EU Member States, deriving their legal competence from the Treaty. Early Directives concerned the equal treatment of women and men in pay and employment, extending later into the sale and distribution of goods and services, including provision of social security. More recently, Directives have addressed aspects of gender-based violence, based on the legal competence to achieve the judicial cooperation needed for the European area of justice, freedom and security (Walby 2013). The legal bases for these Directives derive from four Articles of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union: Article 157(3) for Directive 2002/73/EC on harassment (in employment); Article 19 for Directive 2004/113/EC on harassment (in access to and distribution of goods and services); Article 82(1)(a) and (d) for Directive 2011/99/EU on protection orders; Article 82(2) for Directive 2011/92/EU on child sex abuse; and Directive 2012/29/EU on victims' rights. This is in addition to the legal basis of the 2011 Anti-Trafficking Directive in Articles 82.2 and 83.1 (as discussed above).

Until recently, the consensus was that German employers prefer internal sources of flexibility over external sources. Recent differences in statistical analyses of rising versus stable job mobility have led some researchers to argue that external flexibility strategies are beginning to destabilize the normal 'standard' employment relationship. In addressing this debate, we present results of a qualitative study of employment practices in knowledge-intensive services, a sector where stable standard employment is assumed necessary to secure skill formation and motivation of highqualified employees. Our case study of project-based work in the German ICT industry confirms the reliance on the 'normal' standard employment relationship, though the reasons for this are more related to customer commitment than to the generation of employee commitment. The high use of standard employment is nonetheless actively combined with the regular and specific use of external employees to master peak work volumes in project-based work.

This study, according to its terms of reference, aims to look specifically at the gender dimension of trafficking for the purpose of sexual exploitation. This follows evidence from statistical data from Eurostat, as well as data from The European Police Office (Europol) and the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), according to which the most reported form of exploitation of victims is that of sexual exploitation and its strong gender dimension (96 % women and girls). It further addresses recommendations addressed in the Resolution of the European Parliament of 26 February 2014 on sexual exploitation and prostitution and its impact on gender equality (2013/2103(INI)) urging the European Commission to evaluate the impact that the European legal frame- work designed to eliminate trafficking for sexual exploitation has had to date and to undertake further research on patterns of prostitution, on human trafficking for the purpose of sexual exploitation and on the increased level of sex tourism in the EU, with particular reference to minors, and to promote the exchange of best practices among the Member States.

The study identifies and draws on EU law and policy competence in gender equality in its identi cation of the gen- der dimensions of tra cking. The gender dimensions are clustered into five issues: gender specificity and equal treatment; gender expertise, gender balance in decision-making and gender mainstreaming; the relationship between prostitution and tra cking; gendered policy fields and strategic priorities; gendered systems and the theory of prevention.
