Genders disappearance : interrogating the dominance of equality discourses and the suppression of gendered recruitment and selection inequities in Australian sport workplaces

    Abstract

    ![CDATA[The study explores how managers’ experiences and interpretations of official employee recruitment and selection practices can construct and reproduce gendered access inequities in Australian sport workplaces. Using a case study approach and drawing on formal organisational documents and fifty eight semi-structured in depth interviews the research is concerned with making visible and interrogating the hidden and suppressed gendered assumptions, norms and practices that privilege some and disadvantage others. Resistances to dominant workplace discourses and taken-for-granted assumptions affecting workplace practices means that alternative and more productive images of work and social relations at work might be imagined and constituted in sport and other workplace contexts.]]
