abstract: 'This paper explores the causal link between couple''s household
|
||||
|
||||
decision-making power and women''s labour market and economic outcomes.
|
||||
|
||||
Autonomy refers to the condition of independence while decision-making
|
||||
|
||||
power can be defined as one''s ability to make important decisions within
|
||||
|
||||
the household. Autonomy and decision-making power are used
|
||||
|
||||
interchangeably in this paper. Using the 2018 Nigeria Demographic and
|
||||
|
||||
Health Survey and a series of probit, instrumental probit and
|
||||
|
||||
multinomial logistic regression models, findings suggest that women who
|
||||
|
||||
have lower autonomy in their households are less likely to be currently
|
||||
|
||||
employed and even when they are employed, these women have higher odds
|
||||
|
||||
of working in family businesses, which are typically associated with
|
||||
|
||||
greater labour market vulnerability. These women are, however, more
|
||||
|
||||
likely to own assets, a strategy likely aimed at improving their exit
|
||||
|
||||
options. Interestingly, when men have relatively more power within the
|
||||
|
||||
household, there are positive implications for women''s labour market
|
||||
|
||||
outcomes-women are more likely to be currently employed and less likely
|
||||
|
||||
to be unpaid workers in family businesses. An explanation for this may
|
||||
|
||||
be found in the country''s high poverty levels and general economic
|
||||
|
||||
hardships which necessitates the influx of additional resources into the
|
||||
|
||||
household through women''s paid employment. Greater absolute and relative
|
||||
|
||||
autonomy of male partners, however, reduce women''s asset ownership,
|
||||
|
||||
likely because greater resource accumulation by women, beyond wage
|
||||
|
||||
receipts, can be an indicator of dominance within the household, a
|
||||
|
||||
position typically ascribed to men by cultural and patriarchal norms.
|
||||
|
||||
These results suggest that relative perceptions of authority and
|
||||
|
||||
autonomy in the household are important determinants of Nigerian women''s
|
||||
|
||||
labour market behaviours and asset ownership, and the influences of male
|
||||
|
||||
partners cannot, and should not, be underestimated.'
