- Description
- 'Authors analyze differences in female part-time work rates across countries using European Social Survey .data for 2012 to study composition and selectivity effects by means of Oaxaca-decompositions. A novel .treatment of the selection term distinguishes the effect of country differences in employment rates from .the effect of pure selectivity. Authors find that demand-side factors are more important than supply-side factors in explaining differences in part-time work rates, that overall composition effects are small and that employment positively selects women into part-time work.'

- Description
- 'In this report authors give an overview of the most important laws protecting women’s rights as workers. .With this goal in mind, authors do not limit the scope of this report to those rights that apply exclusively to women, but include all those issues that are crucial to workers who are women. As in the frst Labour Rights for Women report, authors look firstly at the legal framework enabling women’s participation and representation in the workplace, the contracts under which they can be employed and the wages to which they are entitled. .Authors then study the legislation regarding non-discrimination, maternity arrangements and protection from sexual harassment. .The report focuses on the legislation that exists in the twelve countries (Egypt, Kenya, Mozambique, South Africa, Tanzania,Uganda, India, Indonesia, Pakistan, Guatemala, Paraguay and Peru) in the Labour Rights for Women Project. In order to retain its practical value, this report does not provide an exhaustive list of all relevant legislation and policy in the twelve countries, but an impression of the most important rights that women should be able to rely on.'

- Description
- 'To explore how an informal job in formal employment can be define and who has an informal job and what the labour market outcomes are, are the research objectives, this paper uses data of comparable face-to-face surveys in nine countries: Benin, Ghana, Guinea, Kenya, Madagascar, Niger, Rwanda, Senegal, and Togo. An index for job-based informality is developed, based on contribution and entitlement to social security and employment status. In all countries, the young and low-educated workers are more likely to hold informal jobs: even more so are workers in micro-enterprises and private industry, and to a lesser extent those in unskilled occupations. Women and men are equally likely to hold informal jobs in formal employment. The more informal, the poorer the labour market outcomes: wages are lower: the chances of being paid below the minimum wage, working more than 48 hours, and not being covered by a collective agreement are higher.'
