How to increase female labour force participation in Pakistan (The Express Tribune) 

April 07, 2021


Express Tribune published an article stating that the labor force participation rates of women in Pakistan are among the lowest in the world. A survey conducted by IFPRI collected data on the number of hours spent by women in housework such as cooking, cleaning, laundry, etc. Women in the survey spend on average up to 40 hours per week in domestic work, the average number of hours of a full-time job. This burden of work leaves women no time to actively participate in the labor force.
