To follow up on this line of inquiry, in 2013 I conducted a study of the lived experiences of unemployed women with intersecting identities that included: being precariously employed prior to the period of unemployment; being a single parent, a parent of a child, or a parent of multiple children; caring for parents; lacking a partner’s income; having a precariously employed or unemployed partner; having a racialized identity or immigrant status; and having various gender, class, and age.2 These multiple identities bring attention to diversities and inequities in women's working lives.	cache/ar-22397.pdf	txt/ar-22397.txt
