Abstract

Employers often see employees who don’t have children as ideal workers who dedicate themselves fully to the job. Co-workers and managers often expect them to take on extra work, do overtime and take up travelling. Anne Theunissen spoke with childfree employees in various industries across the EU. On this International Childfree Day, she writes about the stigmatisation and exclusion of these workers and suggests steps to promote their inclusion.
