Abstract
ABSTRACT Over the last two decades, both globally and in Israel, civil society and non-profit organisations (NPOs) have become important initiators and providers of social services. The non-profit sector is a major employer in the Israeli labour market. Women comprise 68% of its employees, and many are mid-level managers. The article presents a qualitative study, which examines the employment experience of 25 women working as mid-level managers in Israeli NPOs, and addresses their occupational and personal experience, their challenges and motivations. In addition, the study highlights the employment characteristics of non-profits – a sphere of part-time, temporary and underpaid work.
