La ménopause est une source importante d'inégalité salariale femmes-hommes... Et, surprise (non), cette inégalité se renforce dans les classes sociales défavorisés, du fait de moindres capacités à se prémunir contre les symptômes de la ménopause. Un travail de @gabriconti chroniqué par @Paulinegro

🗞️ Excellent coverage of our new final report of #SureStart by @richada.bsky.social @theguardian.com 📌 Our #IFS report here ifs.org.uk/publications... “Sure Start centres saved UK government £2 for every £1 spent, study finds” 👉🏻 www.theguardian.com/education/20...

“If this government wants to boost children’s life chances, it should take a serious look at integrated early years services.” From Pedro Carniero, Sarah Cattan, @gabriconti.bsky.social‬, Claire Crawford, ‪@ckfarquharson.bsky.social‬, ‪@nickridpath.bsky.social‬: ifs.org.uk/publications... [11/11]

At its peak, Sure Start cost around £2.7bn per year (in today's prices). We estimate that over the long run, it might generate £2.4bn in savings for government per cohort. Including wider benefits like higher earnings, total long-run benefits could be twice the cost. [10/11]
