    Unequal division of unpaid work in Turkey: Evidence from time-use survey, 2006
    (Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2016) Yılmazer, Işın Ulaş Ertuğrul; Çalışma Ekonomisi Bölümü
    Using a sample of 7458 people in working age from Time-Use Survey, conducted in 2006, we examine the difference in people’s time spent in both housework and care work. In this study, we perform covariance analysis by using slope-intercept technique to qualify the determinants and to catch the differentiation among both the determinants and determinant groups. Including grouped variables in the model provided us to understand their cumulative effects on people’s time use in unpaid work. The most significant result of the model used in this study is that people’s time use in unpaid work is highly gendered since women’s time spent is at least six times greater than men’s. Additionally, an employed woman with a college degree –as a grouped variable- does two and an half hour less work in a week than women without any education while a man in the same group does 30 minutes more work than his uneducated counterparts. In the case of Turkey, the study also shows that share of both housework and care work done by women is considerably high. On the other hand, women’s participation to labor force leads to a significant decrease in their unpaid work time at home.

    Why do employees remain silent? The effects of organizational justice perceptions
    (Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2016) Yürür, Senay; Yeloğlu, Hakkı Okan; Sayılar, Yücel; İktisadi ve İdari Bilimler Fakültesi; İşletme Bölümü
    This study aims to comprehend and explain how organizational justice perception, which is believed to influence the silence of employees, impacts the unwillingness of employees to express themselves. The study sample, selected using the convenience sampling method, includes 471 individuals employed in different industries in Ankara, Turkey. A survey was administered to the study participants for data collection. The tools used for the data collection process were Van Dyne, Ang and Botero’s (2003) organizational silence scale and Colquitt's (2001) organizational justice scale. Results from the study found that organizational justice perception has a general influence over the silence behavior of employees. However, the analyses performed on the sub-dimensions of both variables have shown that the effects observed varied. Comprehensive data and evaluations regarding the results derived from the study will be presented in the following sections of this paper.
