Abstract:

Traditionally accounting has been described as a gendered profession Recently accounting firms and especially the Big Four have made very public commitments to promote greater gender equality, yet they struggle to retain women especially at more senior levels Drawing on a recent empirical field study of managers in one of the Big Four accounting firms (pseudonym Sky Accounting) we explore the effects of a flexible work initiative that was developed with the aim of creating the best professional workplace for women.
