Study the pattern of women's economic participation in the labor market "By focusing on individual characteristics and household Specification"
In the present study, the model of economic participation of married women has been estimated using cross sectional, micro-data which is extracted of cost-income statistics of the country's household by Statistics Center of Iran, in 2018. The factors affecting the economic participation of married women are considered following three sub-categories: individual characteristics of women, household characteristics (socio-economic) and geographical area of residence (urban/rural). The statistical samples include 29,715 married women living in urban and rural areas of the country and the sample is estimated using the probit model. The results show that the main factor influencing the increase in the probability of economic participation of married women is related to university education. The probability of economic participation of married women increases with age up to 48 years old and then decreases. It has been shown that married women are more likely to participate economically in rural areas than in urban areas. Economic characteristics of the household such as access to non-working (miscellaneous) incomes of husband and home ownership as two affecting factors in household income and expenses, reduce the likelihood of participation in the work market of married women. Findings show that the economic participation of married women in the country is influenced by the level of women's university education and is targeted to meet the economic needs of the family.
