The dynamic relationships between the female labour force and the economic growth

What is it about?

In this study, the relationship between female labour force participation rate and economic growth is investigated in middle-income countries. The study covers the period of 2001-2016 by employing a dynamic panel approach. The estimation implies that the middle-income countries support a U-shaped relationship. The fertility rate does not have an impact on the female labour force while education and total labour force level have a positive influence on women’s participation in the labour market.
