abstract: 'The contribution explores the time-use dimensions of the individual
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
well-being of home-based workers in Thailand''s urban squatter
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
communities to demonstrate how time-use patterns provide information
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
regarding individual experiences in performing economic activities that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
affect quality of life. The study focuses on two groups of home-based
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
workers: the self-employed, and those who work for a contractor. Using
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
an individual-level well-being index that takes into account income, the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
capabilities related to education, and work intensity, the authors
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
examine by OLS and GME techniques the varied factors that affect the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
well-being of home-based workers. The findings show that women workers
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
experience a higher incidence of work intensity and hence lower quality
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of life compared with men. A better understanding of the factors that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
promote or lower well-being can help policy-makers design more effective
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
programs and economic and social policies.'
