Abstract
In this study, the short- and long-term relationships between energy consumption and women's unemployment in 29 OECD countries are investigated using panel data for the period 1991-2015. For the empirical analysis, Panel ARDL method and Granger causality tests are used. The results of the analyses reveal that both short- and long-term energy consumptions have significant adverse effects on female unemployment. That is to say; energy consumption has a negative and statistically significant impact on the female unemployment rate. In addition, according to the Granger causality test result, it is found that there is bidirectional causality between energy consumption and female unemployment rate.
