Work resumption and economic independence among women with paid employment one year after childbirth

Abstract Background In Europe, women are more likely to be unemployed compared to men. Also, they more often hold part-time employment. After pregnancy and childbirth, women often reduce their working hours further or even exit the workforce altogether. This not only impacts their individual career, financial stability, and economic independence, but also their own health and well-being and that of their offspring. Objectives We aim to study the patterns of women’s work resumption in the first year after childbirth, and if sick leave during pregnancy and birth outcomes small for gestational age (SGA) and preterm birth play a role in this. Data from Statistics Netherlands and the Dutch Perinatal Registry from 114,722 Dutch pregnant women in paid employment (2016) were used for the analyses. Next to descriptive analyses, multivariate regression was used to assess which factors contribute to economic independence one year after childbirth. Results After pregnancy, over 50% of women reduced their working hours, and 12% became unemployed. The largest reduction was found in the group working fulltime (from 31 to 11%), in contrast, the group working 20-25 hours per week increased from 19 to 28% one year after childbirth. Among the women with sick leave during pregnancy (11%), the decrease in working hours was more pronounced and almost 40% of them became unemployed. The percentage of women being economically independent changed from 88% at the onset of pregnancy to 78% one year after childbirth. Next to employment factors (working hours and contract type), migration background and lower education were associated with lower odds of economic independence. Moreover, sick leave during pregnancy and having a SGA baby also reduced the odds of economic independence. Conclusions After pregnancy, women tend to work less than before, or even exit the workforce, with considerable impact on their economic independence. This is even more pronounced in the group with sick leave during pregnancy. Key messages • Despite paid maternity leave, pregnancy and childbirth negatively impact work force participation in women. • The need for sick leave during pregnancy is predictive of reduced work resumption and economic independence one year after pregnancy.

Business Incubator Management toward Economic Independence at the Boarding School (Study at Pondok Pesantren Nurul Islam, Mojokerto)

Pondok Pesantren Nurul Islam Pungging Mojokerto (NURIS) equips its santri with structured formal education. Problems are experienced when this boarding school has been productive in the field of education but is still passive in terms of economic independence. The potential to make boarding schools economically independent is very high. One is the creative economy, which is increasingly showing its intelligence in Industry 5.0. To catch up with this, it is necessary to empower santri to be able to become a santripreneur who has soft skills. One way is to empower students in the business incubator industry. The purpose of implementing santri empowerment activities is so that Nurul Islam Pungging Mojokerto boarding school can meet its own needs and become an economically independent modern boarding school. In addition to improving the pesantren's economy, this business incubator program is also expected to be a provision for students when they graduate to be able to live independently. This research uses a qualitative method by collecting data from in-depth interviews with several students, teachers, and the head of the boarding school foundation. After collecting the data, a Forum Group Discussion (FGD) was conducted, and determined the mechanism of this business incubator activity. Training and mentoring activities were conducted for Nurul Islam Pungging Mojokerto boarding school students for approximately 3 months. The design layout of the business incubator is the output of this research. As a business incubator, it is still not optimal. It needs to be improved regarding Shared, namely not providing office facilities that can be used together, and Synergy, namely not creating cooperation with parties outside the boarding school.

Balancing gender inequality in C-suite positions in Mexico : Women’s empowerment and success through personal branding

This research paper explores the factors that empower women in C-suite positions and the relationship between personal brand and successful performance in managerial positions. The study was conducted in two stages. First, a qualitative approach consisting of 15 in-depth interviews with women in C-suite positions was employed to identify preliminary challenges and feelings relating to personal brand. The second stage was based on insights from a qualitative study of data obtained from an online questionnaire administered to 111 women in C-suite positions. Structural equation modelling was used to analyse the data through three key variables: feeling attractive, education level and affluence. The results indicated the validity of the conceptual model. Aspects of having a high level of education, feeling attractive and having economic independence were associated with significant empowerment for women. To date, there have been very few studies into the empowerment of women in managerial positions in emerging markets and the importance of them feeling successful in their professional development. The present study underscores the importance of personal branding for women in C-suite positions with respect to physical care, intellectual preparation and the satisfaction of being economically independent. Even though there are large differences in the gender salary gap, women in C-suite positions have been able to feel successful and competent when they feel satisfied with their personal brand.

Anadolu Kadınlarının Kadına Yönelik Şiddete İlişkin Görüş Tutum Ve Davranışları

Objective: Violence against women is a global humanitarian problem. The present study evaluates the opinions, attitudes and behaviors of women living in the Kars province of Turkey toward violence against women, and analyses the socio-demographic factors that influence both physical violence, and the opinions, attitudes and behaviors of women toward such violence.
 Methods: This cross-sectional research was conducted with 183 women aged 17-83 years, involving a questionnaire prepared based on a summary report on domestic violence against women in Turkey.
 Results: Of the respondents, 30.4 percent had been exposed severe physical violence and 41.3% mild physical violence. It was seen that a low family income increased the risk of physical violence 3.152-fold. The risk of physical violence was 2.974 times greater in women with unemployed partners. A relatively low educational level in the partner meant a 2.981-fold increase in the risk of physical violence; and the risk of physical violence was 2.328 times greater in the younger age groups than in the older age groups. Women with a higher level of education and with more economic independence, those in employment, and those in the younger age groups mostly considered violence against women to be “never acceptable”. Women seeking legal aid when exposed to violence by their partners were in the well-educated and economically independent women groups, to a significant degree. 
 Conclusion: Culture, education and economic status are the main risk factors for violence against women, however multidimensional research is necessary if we are to understand the root cause of such behaviors.

New Estimates of the Economic Independence Index: Is Economic Independence Necessary for Sustaining Economic Growth?

Is economic independence necessary for sustaining economic growth? In the past, political—and therefore economic—independence was a prelude to economic growth. With most countries gaining their political independence in the twentieth century, countries’ economic independence was understated assuming its existence with the end of colonialism. Yet economic independence began to be increasingly circumscribed by measures and pressures imposed by the more powerful countries, multinational corporations and international organizations on the less powerful countries. Due to the rising importance of economic independence, the first composite index to quantify it, with its two versions EII-1 and EII-2, was published in 2017 and estimated values for economic independence for some selected countries for the period 2010–2013. This study aims to measure the levels of economic independence for 104 of these selected countries for the period 2014–2019 using the 2017 index, and compare the countries’ scores in the two periods. The Russian Federation topped the two indexes making it without dispute the strongest economically independent country. As economic growth proved to be contingent on real economic independence, countries may need to assess their vulnerability or resilience to external economic shocks through their new scores in the EII in order to sustain economic growth.

Role of NGOs in Skill Development and Promotion of Micro-Entrepreneurship among Women:A Study of Allahabad District

Entrepreneurship is a catalytic agent for promoting economic independence among women. Skill development forms an important prerequisite towards entrepreneurship development. This case-based study makes an attempt to identify the role played by Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) in promoting micro-entrepreneurship among women through skill development. It identifies the type and the nature of skills imparted by NGOs to women and the types of economically viable activities started by these women after skill development. The paper also aims at identifying the role played by the NGOs in sustainability of these businesses. It is an exploratory, qualitative research, where multiple-case study method was used. The primary data was collected through in-depth semi-structured interviews of four prominent NGOs in Allahabad district that are actively involved in imparting skill development training to women. The study reveals that these NGOs are involved in skill development of women mostly belonging to rural areas that extended even beyond Uttar Pradesh. The skills imparted were related to agro-based activities and handicrafts. Many of these trainees took up micro-entrepreneurship as individuals or as groups. These NGOs not only provide training for skill development, they are also instrumental in ensuring sustainability of ventures started by these women by the way of providing consultancy on various essential aspects of running business, guiding them in receiving financial assistance, and assisting them in marketing of products. Thus, the main emphasis of NGOs is to make women economically independent through micro-entrepreneurship which is promoted by means of skill development and ensuring sustainability of their enterprises.

길먼의 일기에 나타난 사적/공적 서사: 일과 자립 추구 및 병증 대처를 중심으로

Charlotte Perkins Gilman started writing a diary when she was 15 in 1875, and continued the practice for about 28 years with only sporadic breaks in between until she intentionally stopped at the age of 43 in 1903. Given that her overall writing mainly focused on public issues involving the status of women in her day, Gilman’s diary is worth noting as an important document that reveals more personal aspects about her. Considering recent discussions on diary writing, however, a diary is not just a private record of daily events, but often serves as a medium for dealing with public issues of the day. In this vein, this paper examines Gilman’s diary as a private/public narrative by which she tried to pursue work and economic independence and to cope with invalidism. Certainly, her diary is mainly composed of records of her daily occurrences and personal thoughts, but it also shows how she struggled with issues of women’s status imposed by society. As a result, this paper argues that her personal issues of struggling with her invalidism and making strenuous efforts to be economically independent by being a woman writer resonate with public issues that women in general had to deal with in her day.

RELATIONSHIP OF AWARENESS AND USAGE OF ONLINE AND MOBILE BANKING AMONG YOUTH WITH SELECTED VARIABLESMs. Anuradha Sangar

India anticipates receiving a demographic dividend because it has the largest working population in the world. However, a significant obstacle lies in its limited employment generation capacity. Eliminating poverty simultaneously is also crucial. Financial inclusion among youth should be emphasized in the fight against poverty. A self-administered survey was used for data collection. The research was carried out in two distinct districts of Punjab—GURDASPUR, and JALANDHAR—at two distinct commerce colleges. The sample for this study consists of young adults between the ages of 18 and 25 who are enrolled in post secondary education in the commerce field. A sample of 100 young people from commerce colleges in the cities of Jalandhar and Gurdaspur was chosen in the case of awareness of online banking, Result reveals that there is a strong correlation between respondent categories (economically independent versus economically dependent) in three of the variables: opening an account, paying utility bills online, and online shopping. Opening an account, paying utility bills, checking balance, and transferring money are the four uses of mobile banking that have a significant correlation with the respondent's economic independence or dependence. In the caseof online banking awareness, there is a strong correlation between the respondent's annual family income and three variables: opening an account, checking balance, and paying utility bills. In terms of mobile banking awareness, there is a significant correlation between openingan account, checking the balance, transferring money, and paying utility bills. In all cases, thereis a strong correlation between the respondent's annual family income and the use of online banking

Special needs provision and economic independence among young adults with disabilities: A longitudinal study

ABSTRACT This study, inspired by a life course approach, examines how former students with special educational needs that were met with different types of support, succeed in finding employment with sufficient pay to sustain livelihood and, thus, made themselves economically independent. The individuals in the sample (N = 295) are a part of a Norwegian research project that has lasted for 20 years. The study participants’ difficulties and their special needs and the provision made to meet those needs were recorded when they were 16–17 years old. Beyond their teens, they reported the information about themselves every fifth year until their mid-thirties. At that age, more than half were economically independent. Logistic regression analysis revealed that independent variables in the analytic model influence economic independence in various ways. The main conclusion was that the use of teacher assistants and much special pedagogical teaching do not contribute to long-term economic independence Other factors, including changes in the life course after leaving secondary school, vocational or academic competence registered when the individuals were in their late twenties and the birth of their first child seem to be of greater importance. Yet other factors, such as gender and functional level seem to be decisive.

The Long-Term Effect of Food Insecurity During College on Future Food Insecurity

Food insecurity has been associated with adverse health and academic outcomes among college students. However, little is known about the long-term impacts of experiencing food insecurity during college. This study examines the impacts of college food insecurity (measured from 1999 to 2003) on future food insecurity (measured from 2015 to 2017) and whether this association differs by economic independence during college. Data came from 1,508 participants in the Panel Study of Income Dynamics, the longest-running and nationally representative panel survey. Household food security was assessed using the 18-item U.S. Household Food Security Survey Module during college enrollment in 1999-2003 and again during adulthood in 2015-2017. Generalized linear models were used to examine the impacts of college food insecurity on food insecurity in adulthood, adjusting for individual- and family-level sociodemographic characteristics. Data analysis was conducted in 2020-2021. After multivariable adjustment, college food insecurity was associated with an increased prevalence of food insecurity in adulthood (prevalence ratio=1.45, 95% CI=1.16, 1.81). This association was more pronounced among students who were economically independent from their parents during college (prevalence ratio=2.23, 95% CI=1.27, 3.90). Food insecurity during college is associated with a higher prevalence of food insecurity in early to middle adulthood, particularly among economically independent students. Given the seemingly cyclical nature of food insecurity over the life course, policies are needed to alleviate food insecurity during the critical college years.

Impact of state of economic dependence and employment status on the self-perceived health of Indian elderly people across expenditure quintiles of households

AbstractSelf-perceived health, a subjective assessment of health status, is influenced by state of economic independence and employment status after controlling for other demographic, social and health-related factors, particularly for elderly people as they tend to face discrimination in intra-household resource allocation. Being economically independent and employed increase the likelihood of elderly people rating their health as good/excellent compared to others and employment status came out as even more impactful. This study provides new insights by observing that across the expenditure quintile groups of the households, the importance of these variables varies as the bias in intra-household resource allocation against elderly people is supposed to increase with declining economic resources of the households. Economic independence improves the likelihood of rating one's health as good/excellent in the lowest expenditure quintile much more compared to those in the uppermost expenditure quintile. For employed too, the positive influence of employment status on self-perceived health of elderly people has been strictly increasing as we move down the expenditure quintiles of households.

Effect of family "upward" intergenerational support on the health of rural elderly in China: Evidence from Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey.

As health challenging rural elderly in an aging population, more attention is being paid on impact of family intergenerational support on the health of the elderly. This paper investigates the effects of children’s intergenerational economic support and non-economic support on physical, mental, and functional health of rural elderly in China in the mean while. This paper applies the 2014 Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey (CLHLS), in particular, applying exploratory factor analysis to ascertain latent variables and Structural Equation Model (SEM), and analyzes the impacts of "Upward" intergenerational support on health of rural elderly. As resulted, after controlling the socioeconomic status of the rural elderly, the family “upward” intergenerational support influences the elderly’s physical health at a percentage of 11.7%, mental health 29.8%, and physiological function 12.6%. Moreover, "Upward" economic support has a positive effect on physiological function (P<0.05). "Upward" non-economic support has negative effects on physiological function and mental health (P<0.05), while it has a positive effect on physical health. In addition, economically independent rural elderly are more likely to benefit from the health of "upward" intergenerational support, especially mental health. In particular, those results are robust. "Upward" intergenerational support plays an important role for the health of rural elderly. For the rural elderly of economic independence, to improve the quality of care and spiritual support, it is important to solve the health problems. In addition, it is necessary to build a comprehensive old-age security and support system for family, community, and society jointly to improve the health of the rural elderly.

Socio – Cultural Differences Between Rural and Urban Women Entrepreneurs

In India, it is important to empower women through entrepreneurship for women development, economic growth and social stability. Women, in India, despite struggling with the social shackles are becoming economically independent. The social norms relating to the status of Women range from outright taboos against working outside the home to pressures which discourage women from being involved in self –employment or entrepreneurial ventures. According to the Patriarchal system that prevails in India, males have the power over women through control of property and household income. Since female economic independence is limited in these societies, this automatically leads to their lower status in relation to men. Hence, the cultural structures are rigid dividing the roles and spheres of men and women. The typical divide is that of roles restricted within the household for women and outside the home for men. In recent years, there has been an increasing awareness for the disadvantaged status of women and the need to promote social equality and recognition of women as equal partners with men in development. As a response to this awareness, several studies and action programmes at the international, national and regional levels have been carried out or are on – going, to identify and assess problems and evolve policies and measures for their solution. As a result, there is a clear perception now of the nature and magnitude of the basic issues inhibiting women’s role in society and their development. This paper highlights, how despite lacking qualification and yet becoming entrepreneurs to achieve economic independence is perceived differently in urban as well as rural areas. Further, how the social as well as cultural factors differ for the women entrepreneurs in both urban as well as rural areas is captured in this particular study.
