Abstract

This paper examines the labor market conditions of the paid workforce in the health and elderly care industry in the People’s Republic of China (PRC). Findings indicate that the wages for elderly care workers, most of whom are women, were low, and that most of the elderly care institutions had difficulty generating sufficient revenue to cover operation costs. The growth in employment in the health and elderly care industry has lagged other sectors, limiting the supply of high-quality services for the PRC’s growing population with health and care needs.
