Exploring Gender Equality Practices in the Digitalisation of Employment in Tasikmalaya: An Ethnographic Approach

Abstrak

This study aims to determine how gender equality practices in the digitalisation of employment in Tasikmalaya include inclusion in the workplace, recruitment, job placement, training and career development, and compensation. The method used in this study is a qualitative method with an ethnographic approach. The informants in this study are formal workers in Tasikmalaya. The results of the study indicate that gender equality practices in the digital workforce in Tasikmalaya have been realized structurally, but have not been fully realized culturally. This is seen in inclusion in the workplace, recruitment, placement, training and career development, as well as fair compensation and equal opportunities for men and women. However, despite equal opportunities in job placement, internal job placement is still influenced by cultural gender stereotypes, which causes bias.
