Description Our paper aims to describe how gender inequality depends on the previous professions ofthe unemployed in Spain, Switzerland and the European Union. We rejected the hypothesisof hysteresis using the LM test for univariate series and the ILT test for panel data series onlyin the presence of one or two structural breaks, whose temporary impact has been provenusing Half-life estimators. Cross-dependence has been proven using the Pesaran CD test ongender inequality in the occupations of the unemployed in Spain and the European Union,and has been rejected for Switzerland. It has been found that the disadvantage of one genderin the inequality between men and women in unemployment depends on the previousemployment of the unemployed and that in all analysed territories there are some typicalprofessions for each sex. The levels of inequality were lower when men were at a disadvantage.
