abstract: 'The paper examines the time allocation between paid work (wage earning
|
|
|
|
or self-employed work generally termed as employment work) and unpaid
|
|
|
|
(domestic chores/care work generally termed as non-employment work)
|
|
|
|
along with wage rates, imputed earnings, and occupational structure
|
|
|
|
among men and women and according to different social groups to
|
|
|
|
establish the extent to which the rural labour market is discriminated
|
|
|
|
by sex and social group. The major objective of the paper is to show the
|
|
|
|
differential in wage income between men and women in farm and non-farm
|
|
|
|
activities. The paper also shows the division of time between employment
|
|
|
|
and non-employment activities by men and women. The paper uses
|
|
|
|
high-frequency data and applies econometric techniques to know the
|
|
|
|
factors behind time allocation among different activities across gender.
|
|
|
|
The study finds that males spend more hours on employment work and work
|
|
|
|
at a higher wage rate than females. As a result, a vast monetary income
|
|
|
|
gap between men and women is observed, even though women worked more
|
|
|
|
hours if employment and non-employment activities are jointly taken into
|
|
|
|
consideration. Time spent on employment work and non-employment (mainly
|
|
|
|
domestic chores) has been found to vary significantly due to social
|
|
|
|
identity, household wealth, land, income, education, and skill. The
|
|
|
|
segregation of labour market by sex was evident in this study, with men
|
|
|
|
shifting to non-farm occupations with greater monetary returns and
|
|
|
|
continued dependence on women''s farm activities. Enhancing the ownership
|
|
|
|
of land and other assets, encouraging women''s participation particularly
|
|
|
|
among minorities, and improving health are some of the policy
|
|
|
|
recommendations directed from this study to enhance participation in
|
|
|
|
employment work and shifting towards higher wage income employment.'
