# Event Details - **Event Name**: Studying work across the life course: what quantitative data can tell us - **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 20 May, 2026 at 01:00 pm – Wed, 20 May, 2026 at 02:30 pm (+01:00) - **Event Description**: This talk shows how quantitative data can complement qualitative research by revealing patterns in working lives across the life courseAbout this EventBio:Vendula Machů holds a Master's in Social Epidemiology from Charles University in Prague. Before starting her PhD at the University of Groningen, she worked at the National Institute of Mental Health, contributing to psychiatric care reform projects in Czechia. Her PhD research examined the link between work, parenthood, and mental health during young adulthood from a life course perspective. Since February 2025, she has worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Health Sciences of the University Medical Centre Groningen, focusing on projects related to work transitions into retirement and the inclusion of first-generation medical students.Research on decent work benefits from multiple approaches to understanding people’s working lives. In this talk, I show how quantitative data can reveal broader patterns in work and family trajectories across the life course. Using two types of data (a longitudinal cohort study and Dutch administrative register data), I examined key transitions in working lives, from school-to-work and work–family trajectories among young adults to pathways into retirement at later ages. Rather than focusing on single outcomes, the analyses examine the timing and duration of various life events and study the accumulation of advantages and disadvantages over time. The presentation discusses what quantitative data can tell us about stability and inequality in working lives, as well as their limitations in fully capturing the concept of decent work. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/manchester/studying-work-across-the-life-course-what-quantitative-data-can-tell-us/100001983853317677 - **Event Categories**: Workshops, health-wellness - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fstudying-work-across-the-life-course-what-quantitative-data-can-tell-us-tickets-1983853317677 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Manchester - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: BS 3.27 M15 6BY - **lat**: 53.4682967 - **long**: -2.2394767 - **full address**: BS 3.27 M15 6BY, Man Met University Business School, Manchester, United Kingdom ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: Decent Work & Productivity (https://allevents.in/org/decent-work-and-productivity/26823418) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/f318fb3fcb15b67a7591015b71143536d6d099da4081a6f57856f8b038938000-rimg-w1200-h586-dc454832-gmir.jpg?v=1772334970 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/5196a229214b38467a88ae32e14a3886a5319b5455264fad9e04f6628384585e-rimg-w400-h400-dcf3f3ed-gmir.jpg?v=1772334970 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Wed, 20 May, 2026 at 01:00 pm (+01:00) - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** BS 3.27 M15 6BY, Man Met University Business School, Manchester, United Kingdom - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 0 up to 0 USD - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** Decent Work & Productivity - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** Workshops, health-wellness - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Studying work across the life course: what quantitative data can tell us ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Studying work across the life course: what quantitative data can tell us", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/f318fb3fcb15b67a7591015b71143536d6d099da4081a6f57856f8b038938000-rimg-w1200-h586-dc454832-gmir.jpg?v=1772334970", "startDate": "2026-05-20T13:00:00+01:00", "endDate": "2026-05-20T14:30:00+01:00", "url": "https://allevents.in/manchester/studying-work-across-the-life-course-what-quantitative-data-can-tell-us/100001983853317677", "eventStatus": "https://schema.org/EventScheduled", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "BS 3.27 M15 6BY", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "Man Met University Business School", "postalCode": "M15 6BY", "addressLocality": "Manchester", "addressRegion": "EN", "addressCountry": "GB" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "53.4682967", "longitude": "-2.2394767" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "This talk shows how quantitative data can complement qualitative research by revealing patterns in working lives across the life course", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-03-01", "availabilityEnds": "2026-05-20T14:30:00+01:00", "validFrom": "2026-03-01", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/manchester/studying-work-across-the-life-course-what-quantitative-data-can-tell-us/100001983853317677" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-03-01", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-03-01", "url": "https://allevents.in/manchester/studying-work-across-the-life-course-what-quantitative-data-can-tell-us/100001983853317677", "price": 0, "name": "General Admission" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Decent Work & Productivity", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/decent-work-and-productivity/26823418" } ] } ] ```
