 Gender mainstreaming in OECD Economic SurveysNicolas Gonne and Mafalda Trincão No 1831, OECD Economics Department Working Papers from OECD Publishing Abstract: This paper defines guiding principles for OECD Economics Department’s country desks to incorporate a gender equality perspective systematically in periodic reviews of member and non-member economies, specifically to promote policies that are conducive to both equal opportunities and economic growth. In line with the mandate of the Economic and Development Review Committee to support countries in improving their economic performance, the paper focuses on policy areas most directly related to economic efficiency, notably policies that affect employment and skills. The proposed framework quantifies the economic benefits from enhanced gender equality, identifies gender gaps in the supply and allocation of talent, and assesses policy requirements in four key areas: family policy (childcare, parental leave, long-term care), tax and benefits systems (labour market entry, second earners), skills policy (education, adult training), and budgeting and regulation.
