abstract: 'Women''s participation in the labour market in Central America, Panama,
and the Dominican Republic (CAPADOM) is low by international standards.
Increasing their participation is a goal of many policymakers who want
to improve women''s access to quality employment. This study uses data
from CAPADOM to assess whether gender equality in the law increases
women''s participation in the labour force and, if that is the case, the
extent to which this boosts GDP per capita. To do so, the authors use a
panel VAR model. The results show that CAPADOM could increase female
labour participation rate by 6 percentage points (pp) and GDP per capita
by 1 pp by introducing gender-related legal changes such as equal pay
for equal work, paid parental leave, and allowing women to do all the
same jobs as men.'
