Stratification in Formal Volunteering: Occupational Spill-Over Effects on the Hierarchical Positions of Volunteers in Voluntary Organizations
基于2014年比利时劳动力调查数据，研究检验了有偿工作职位对志愿者职位层级的溢出效应，发现整体溢出效应不存在，但最高职业类别因志愿职位系统的结构限制而出现向中间层级的向下流动。
This research note examines vertical stratification in formal volunteering. More specifically, it focuses on occupational spillover from positions in the paid labor market to volunteer positions based on the new global ILO standard for the measurement of volunteer work. This methodology is innovative in its similar coding of paid and volunteer work according to a standardized international occupational classification. This study uses data from the 2014 Belgian Labor Force Survey ( N = 795), to which the ILO module was added. Based on results of multivariate logistic regression on a three-tier volunteer occupational structure, we reject the existence of an overall spillover effect. We nevertheless find evidence of a “constrained occupational spillover” for the highest occupational category, which experiences “downward mobility” toward intermediate volunteer positions, due to the structural constraints of the volunteer occupational system. The results further identify educational attainment and gender as key determinants of the volunteer occupational hierarchy.
