Kadın İşgücüne Katılımında Artışın Belirleyicileri: Kuşak Etkisinin Ayrıştırılması

Türkiye’de kadınların işgücüne katılım oranı uluslararası standartlara göre oldukça düşük olmakla birlikte son yıllarda önemli bir artış göstermiştir. Bu çalışmanın amacı söz konusu artışın kaynaklarının araştırılmasıdır. Çalışmanın odağında doğum yılı kuşağının işgücüne katılım üzerindeki etkisinin ayrıştırılması yer almaktadır. Kuşak etkileri, sosyal normlardaki değişimin işgücüne katılım üzerindeki gözlemlenemeyen etkileri temsil etmesi açısından önem taşımaktadır. Çalışma sonuçları, son dönemde gözlenen işgücüne katılım oranındaki artışta kuşak etkilerinin önemli belirleyici bir faktör olduğuna işaret etmektedir. Eğitim düzeyindeki iyileşme, emeklilik yaşının yükselmesi ve doğurganlığın azalması işgücüne katılımı artıran diğer önemli faktörlerdir. Öte yandan, çocuk sahibi olmanın işgücüne katılım üzerindeki olumsuz etkisinde zaman içinde bir azalma görülmemektedir.

Determinants of Rise in Female Labor Force Participation: Identifying Cohort Effects

Female labor force participation rate in Turkey is quite but rapidly increasing. This study analyzes the determinants of this rise. The study focuses on the birth cohort effects on female labor force participation. Cohort effects represent the unobserved effects of changes in societal values on female labor force participation. The study finds cohort effect as the main determinant of recent rise in female labor participation. Improvements in educational attainment, increased retirement age and decline in fertility are other important factors. On the other hand, there is no decrease in the negative effect of having children on female labor force participation
