| Abstract: | A major means of engaging women more in development processes is increasingly productive employment. This paper adds perspective on gender issues and employment in Asian developing countries. First, employment experiences of Asian women, both across countries and over time, are characterized with aggregate data. There are some strong associations between development and many employment variables, though strikingly not for female/male wages. second, some micro evidence on selected dimensions of Asian employment and gender issues is summarized. |
