Bozena’s plans
The overarching aim of my research is to contribute to decreasing social and economic inequalities in contemporary society, through providing evidence, creating better understanding, and raising awareness of these issues.
The UK Data Impact Fellowship will allow me to further disseminate both my research findings, and the lessons I have learned from the research process. It will also allow me to maintain asia rcs data existing and develop new networks with likeminded people outside of my immediate research community.
This includes both policy-makers and practitioners who have hands-on knowledge in the areas of my research, as well members of the public. at all stages of my research, from asking highly-relevant research questions, to ensuring the applicability of my research findings to the evolving policy and practice environment.
James is currently evaluating the effect of the introduction of the National Living Wage (NLW) and changes in the National Minimum Wage (NMW) on employment and hours.
The project involves analysis of the Labour Force Survey and the Annual Survey of Hours and Earnings, funded by the Low Pay Commission. James is also analysing a survey of EU staff in Higher Education for the Department for Education, looking at career trajectories and institutional strategies in response to the UK’s decision to leave the European Union.
