Do Women Have Different Labor Supply Behaviors? Evidence Based on Educational Groups in Uruguay
This study uses Uruguay’s historical fluctuation in real wages to set up a natural experiment to measure the relation between women’s labor supply and wages. Using data from the Continuous Household Surveys of the Uruguayan National Statistics Institute, for 1986–2010, it aims to identify and explain heterogeneity in the labor supply behavior of women with different educational backgrounds. It finds that all women groups seek to optimize their re…
Frenos al empoderamiento económico? Factores que limitan la inserción laboral y la calidad del empleo de las mujeres
This paper explains the differences in men and women’s labor market outcomes. We distinguish between intrinsic and imposed gender constraints on women’s participation in the labor market in Chile. Using data from the 2011 survey “Encuesta de Caracterización Socioeconómica Nacional”, we apply probability models to five stages of labor trajectories, decomposing gender gaps at each stage. Results confirm that women’s labor supply is restricted by th…

El aumento en la oferta laboral de las mujeres casadas en Uruguay
This paper examines the uncompensated elasticity of labor supply to real labor income (own and partner) and household income among married women in Uruguay (1991-2006) based on cross-sectional data. As has been shown for other countries, women’s labor supply is considerably more sensitive to their own wages than men’s. The own wage elasticity is relatively stable in the nineties and it is slightly decreasing in the 2000s. Children in home (negati…
