Changes in the Labor Force

Claude Diebolt and Faustine Perrin

Chapter Chapter 2 in Understanding Demographic Transitions, 2017, pp 41-94 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter explores the reasons of the changing patterns of demographic behavior. In particular, it investigates the transformation of the female life cycle at work. The study of the labor market and more precisely of the female participation in paid activities reveals significant changes in terms of involvement and types of jobs held by women. Special attention is paid to the study of gender differences. The existence of large gender differences in terms of occupation and wage raises the question of the access to education opportunities.
