A Systematic Literature Review on the Working Dilemma of Petrochemical Offshore Workers: A gender perspective

Abstract

This paper aims to identify the dilemma offshore petrochemical workers face using a gender lens. The gender lens allows examining how gender identities, norms, and power dynamics shape experiences, opportunities, and outcomes for different groups of people. Two databases were used in this search, namely the Web of Science and Scopus. The results indicated that 11 articles were accepted after the identification, screening and eligibility processes were undertaken. Based on the thematic analysis, four emerging themes include psychosocial risks, gender stigma, benefits, and social capital. The findings have practical contributions.
