abstract: 'We use the Integrated Household Living Conditions Survey to evaluate the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
extent women are included in Myanmar''s dynamic transformation process
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and the relative barriers that prohibit their inclusion between 2005 and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
2010. Women play an active role in the labor force during a period of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
massive structural change. Their growing importance is substantiated by
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
their increasing placement in manufacturing jobs near and away from
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
home. Despite their increasing labor force participation, women''s
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
engagement in manufacturing is negatively associated with household
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
welfare. This may be a function of a gender pay gap or reflect
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
households'' inability to substitute the labor of women to complete
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
specific tasks related to household production. Future investments in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
surveys in Myanmar will improve our ability to identify which factors
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
systematically provide an enabling environment for female labor
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
participation, mobility, and improvements in well-being.'
