abstract: 'Despite increased access to education, women''s conspicuous absence from
|
||||
|
||||
the labour market in Egypt, and the Arab world in general, has been a
|
||||
|
||||
key issue. Building on the stock of evidence on women''s employment, this
|
||||
|
||||
study provides a qualitative analysis of the torrent of challenges that
|
||||
|
||||
educated married and unmarried women face as they venture into the
|
||||
|
||||
labour market in Egypt. Single women highlight constrained opportunities
|
||||
|
||||
due to job scarcity and compromised job quality. Issues of low pay, long
|
||||
|
||||
hours, informality and workplace suitability to gender propriety norms
|
||||
|
||||
come to the fore in the interview data. Among married working women, the
|
||||
|
||||
conditions of the work domain are compounded by challenges of time
|
||||
|
||||
deprivation and weak family and social support. The article highlights
|
||||
|
||||
women''s calculated and aptly negotiated decisions to work or opt out of
|
||||
|
||||
the labour market in the face of such challenges. The analysis takes
|
||||
|
||||
issue with the culturalist view that reduces women''s employment
|
||||
|
||||
decisions to ideology. It brings to the context of Arab countries three
|
||||
|
||||
global arguments pertaining to the inseparability of work and family for
|
||||
|
||||
women; the role of social policies and labour market conditions in
|
||||
|
||||
defining women''s employment decisions; and the potential disconnect
|
||||
|
||||
between employment and empowerment. By looking at women as jobseekers
|
||||
|
||||
and workers, the analysis particularly highlights the intersectionality
|
||||
|
||||
of different forms of inequality in defining employment opportunities.'
