Tiivistelmä
Selective incivility experienced by males in female-dominated fields
Workplace incivility has attracted an increasing attention among scholars. Nevertheless, extant research on selective incivility has mostly focused on the female gender and male-dominated fields. To fill the obvious research gap, in this study men working in female-dominated occupations were asked to anonymously write about their personal experiences of workplace incivility. Based on the empirical analysis, the workplace incivility experienced by the informants can be grouped to five main categories: humiliating acts, exclusion, unreasonable demands, violating norms, and accusing. The analysis suggests that the nature of workplace incivility reported by men in this study is similar to that experienced by women as reported in previous studies. Therefore, it seems that workplace incivility often targets those representing the minority gender on fields dominated by the other gender. Interestingly, based on this study, the acts of workplace incivility often derive from gender norms and stereotypes and even reproduce and enforce them.
