As an economy transforms from an agricultural economy to an
industrial economy, a decline in participation of female labour force is
observed.
With an increase in income levels of the households, a woman no longer prefers working as an unpaid worker or a helper or as
a casual worker unless the work is remunerative (as in MGNREGA).
However,
such opportunities are limited in rural India and as a result women are not
finding jobs matching their preference (regular part-time jobs close to their
households). Furthermore, with low skill levels, jobs in the non-farm sector
are also limited.
These factors perhaps have led to
the withdrawal of women from the labour force.
Policy Strategies
The decline observed in rural
female labour force participation is due to a complex mix of several forces
working simultaneously.
While the focus is on education and
income effect, research reveal that the lack
of sufficient non-farm jobs in rural areas has forced women to stay out of the
labour market. The wage conditions prevalent in the rural labour market
show that female workers have experienced a better hike in wages/salaries; it
implies that the gender gap in terms of wages/salaries has started declining.
But the opportunities available in rural
India which are compatible with their education levels are dying out.
Dedicated efforts in skilling,
re-skilling and improving their educational outcomes through infrastructure
development, female teacher availability, incentives along with creating an
adequate number of favourable job opportunities are necessary to harness their
potential.
Considering the constraints
experienced by the rural females to enter the labour force, policy initiatives
are required to make them economically active. The initiatives should focus on microfinance-supported self-help
group-centred activities, which will make them economically active along
with handling domestic duties.

While I was stepped forward here and there online to find some quality articles on women's jobs or occupation and their economical situation. I came across to your awesome website. Though I don't live in India, I have a good experience about the country. The most attractive thing that I enjoyed was the attractive culture. Anyway, going through the article I came to understand that still there are some limitation for the rural women to get available job whether full time or part time. I do believe the world is now in a great change. Women of the most countries are coming out of their cocoon or unproductive barriers and getting busy with various profession.Recently I visited some Korean sites that help to get part time occupation for the women that really impressed me most 여우알바 유흥알바 . Hope the rural situation you mentioned in this post will be overcome very soon.Thanks a lot for your great work.
