Current Research

Kieran's current project explores transgender and non-binary employees' experiences of the workplace environment and processes of hiring and promotion to understand of the function of transphobic prejudices and discrimination in widening the pay gap between trans and non-trans workers. This project also examines the Equality Act (2010), specifically its policies on gender pay gap reporting, to recommend ways in which the Act can better acknowledge and safeguard trans workers.
