Tourism Employment in Bali: A Gender Analysis

Judie Cukier and Geoffrey Wall

Tourism Economics, 1995, vol. 1, issue 4, 389-401

Abstract: This paper examines gender roles in tourism employment in Bali, Indonesia. While tourism has provided both women and men with greater occupational choices, through analyses of employment as front desk workers, as vendors, as kiosk operators and as drivers/guides, it is shown that there is differential access by gender to tourism employment in Bali. Furthermore, in the formal sector, women may be required to have superior qualifications and may be paid less than men in similar positions. At the same time as gaining access to employment outside the home, many women are expected to carry out traditional roles at home and in religious activities.
