Abstract:
Labor currently plays a very important role in a country's economy. In the labour sector, women still experience discrimination, which causes the Labor Force Participation Rate (LFPR) of women to remain low compared to men. The LFPR of men in Kabupaten Lima Puluh Kota is higher than the LFPR of women. In 2022, the female LFPR was 63.75%, meaning that of the total labour force, around 63.75% of them were working or looking for work. This study aims to determine the factors that influence women's participation in the labour force in Kabupaten Lima Puluh Kota. This research is applied using the p

Abstract:
How cyclical is the U.S. labor force participation rate (LFPR)? We examine its response to exogenous state-level business cycle shocks, finding that the LFPR is highly cyclical, but with a significantly longer-lived response than the unemployment rate. The LFPR declines after a negative shock for about four years—well beyond when the unemployment rate has begun to recover—and takes about eight years to fully recover after the shock. The decline and recovery of the LFPR is largely driven by individuals with home and family responsibilities, as well as by younger individuals spending time in sch

Abstract:
We investigate the origins of cyclical and trend movements in the labor force participation rate (LFPR) using a three-state flow decomposition. The procyclicality of LFPR can be traced to cyclical flows between employment and unemployment. By contrast, labor force entry and exit explain virtually all of the trend movements. Among men, rising labor force exit rates account for two-thirds of the trend decline in male LFPR since the 1990s. For women, trend increases in female LFPR during the 1990s were dominated by declining exit rates, while the trend decline since the Great Recession can be tra

Abstract:
AbstractBoth primary and secondary data are examined to study the gender dimensions of the pandemic. While maintaining a focus on health, the author discusses the linkages of health, poverty, and women’s agency. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the human development index that incorporates literacy, income, and life expectancy.COVID-19 has severely impacted women’s reproductive health. Unintended pregnancies, abortions, and maternal mortality have increased as a consequence of the pandemic. The demand for services, especially nutritional services, child immunizations, and family planning services was not met. Research shows that sexual and gender-based violence increased during the pandemic. Mental health problems also increased. All these problems affected women disproportionately. The impact of stigma on women’s health is discussed. Its effect on LGBT communities is underscored. The suicide rate in India was higher than that in other countries in South-East Asia even before the pandemic. COVID-19 exacerbated this problem.The author suggests that the government should support disadvantaged communities including the LGBTQ community by transferring leased assets as an eligible collateral for working capital loans. It is recommended that relief packages for COVID-19 should be reworked so they are gender responsive.COVID-19 is threatening the gains made by India to increase women’s education, livelihood opportunities, and labor-force participation. It is also affecting women’s physical and mental health. The author argues for strengthening women’s agency, a critical imperative for countering these problems.

Abstract:
The issue of gender disparity regarding women's participation in the labor force has generally been lower than that of men all around the world. While the rates of labor force participation have been on the rise for many Western European countries due to their longstanding policies, the rates remain lower, with a much slower increase, in the Europe and Central Asia region, which Turkey is considered to be a part of, according to the regional categorization of the World Bank. The issues of institutional and socio-cultural dynamics need to be taken into consideration to explain the comparatively lower female labor force participation rate (LFPR) in the ECA Region, including Turkey, which, in fact, falls behind the ECA countries. Drawing on available data pertaining to women's LFPR, this chapter aims to provide integrated institutional and socio-cultural explanations regarding women's access to education, family policies, participation in unpaid work, and child care.

Temporary and seasonal work has become a significant feature of the modern workforce, offering flexibility but also presenting unique challenges for both workers and employers. This study explores the dynamics of temporary and seasonal employment in India, examining how these forms of work impact workers' economic stability, job security, and overall well-being. This study investigates the statistical differences between the observed characteristics of temporary workers in India and the reference population, focusing on various labor market variables. A total of 558 individuals, employed under temporary contracts in India, were surveyed through an online questionnaire in March 2023. Key variables explored include gender distribution, age demographics, workforce participation rates (WPR), unemployment rates among youth, and labor force participation rates (LFPR). The analysis demonstrates that temporary workers exhibit notable variations compared to the broader workforce, highlighting areas of concern in terms of labor market inclusion and equality.

Abstract:
This chapter looks to analyze three aspects skill: premium or wage incentive, existence of skill-biased technical change, and problems with current vocational training programs prevailing in India. All these three aspects will be analyzed with a gender-based approach specifically looking at female outcomes in comparison to male outcomes. This study would also throw some light on why labor force participation rate has been low in the case of females in India. Using NSSO data, it is found that skill premium was falling for women in labor-intensive sectors and rising in capital-intensive sectors, but it had no major effect on skill premium of total workforce due to low female labor force participation rate. Overall skill premium is stagnant for total workforce, and capital skill complementarity is not present in case of Indian economy. Movement of labor in Indian economy has been from one unskilled sector (agriculture) to another unskilled sector (construction). The study also finds that the major reason behind skill development system being supply driven is lack of involvement of the private sector financially.

Abstract:
One of the key drivers of the development of societies over the past century has been the shift in women's social and economic position. Women have since been increasingly moving into the labor market, into employment, and into work organizations. According to the 2017 ILO report, women's overall labor participation is estimated to be 49.4%, and this rate increases to 53% for the East European countries. Even though women's participation in the labor force and in the front-line managerial positions is increasing, we are still far from achieving gender equality. Apart from the participation of women, a number of other issues remain to be tackled such as the under-representation of women in decision-making positions, the gender pay gap, and male-dominated work cultures. This chapter explores the effects of values and gender role perceptions on attitudes towards women managers.

Abstract:
Sustainable economic growth at national and global level depends on the significant participation of women in the labor force. Because women compose half of the world population in terms of human capital and labor. Despite the developments in recent years, there is still gender inequality in labor markets around the world and labor force participation rate of women is lower than men. There are many factors affecting the participation of women in the labor force in all developed and developing countries. The effect levels of these factors on the participation rate differ depending on the develo

Abstract:
Integration of women into the labor market has been a crucial indicator of economic development and social welfare. Although Turkey has taken important steps in terms of integrating with the world economy by shifting from an import-substituting industrialization model to an export-oriented growth strategy from the 1980s onward, female labor force participation rates and the significant regional variations in these rates indicate that women’s integration into the labor force has not kept pace with economic development. &#x0D; The influence of economic growth on female employment participation h

Abstract:
Migration flows are an important research topic in the economic literature due to the economic effects they have on both the homeland and the countries receiving the immigration. Studies on homeland focus on issues such as remittances, foreign direct investment, Technology and knowledge transfers and trade links, while studies on immigrant countries focus on issues such as immigrants' impacts on the local labor market and commercial effects. The aim of this study starting from this point is the recent massive migration flows exposed to these migration flows in Turkey to determine their impact

Abstract:
Changes in the population structure shape the sociocultural system and the countries’ economies. Studies show that population growth and demographic changes significantly impact the economic development of nations. However, labor productivity is also an important factor affecting economic growth. Labor productivity refers to the increase in productivity resulting from the efforts and skills of employees and their interactions with other employees. At this point, generational transitions in the labor market stand out within the scope of labor productivity. Considering the technological change i

Abstract:
Central Asian countries are experiencing a demographic transition due to the shrinking fertility and mortality rates and are at the stage of getting benefits from the demographic tailwinds with an increased working-age population share. This potential may convert the transition into economic growth and poverty reduction. Although all countries' economies grow, poverty reduction stagnated. The main question is whether this stagnation is due to an increase in the working-age population and whether the region can utilize this benefit to reduce poverty through accumulating human recourses.

This paper estimates how eliminating gender inequality at work and at home in Mongolia would boost the country’s economic growth and sets out policy recommendations. Increasing the participation of women in the labor force can help boost overall economic growth in Mongolia, where the participation rate for working-age women is 53.4%, compared to 68.3% for men. The coronavirus disease pandemic is expected to have worsened this gender gap. Asian Development Bank estimates show that eliminating gender inequality at work and at home would increase female labor force participation in Mongolia to 63

Abstract:
In response to a shock such as the COVID-19 pandemic, a policy that facilitates firm digital adoption can, in the short run, accelerate the recovery of GDP, total employment, and labor income. In the medium run, the policy decreases total employment and the labor force participation rate due to a rise in households opportunity cost of working. However, this comes with higher levels of GDP and labor income, greater average firm productivity, a larger formal employment share, and a marginally lower unemployment rate.

Abstract:
The labor force participation of women in Latin America and the Caribbean is low, and the regions gender gap is one of the widest in the world. Although important progress has been made over the last 50 years (with womens participation rate going from around 20% in the 1960s to more than 60% toward the beginning of the 2010s), the pace of growth slowed down in the early 2000s. Once they enter the labor market, women tend to be employed in lower-paying and lower-quality jobs compared to men. This is due to occupational and educational segregation.

The Better Jobs Index measures jobs in countries based on two dimensions: quantity and quality. The quantity dimension is composed of two indicators: the labor participation rate and the employment rate. Quality, on the other hand, consists of the formality rate and living wage sufficient to overcome poverty. Thus, the index is the weighted average of these four indicators*, and their scores range from 0 to 100. For a country to get 100 points, all people who participate in the labor force must be employed with a formal job that provides them with a living wage.* Indicators are calculated usin
