Abstract
The WBG's Jobs Group has developed
a standardized Jobs Diagnostics tool to help countries
identify key challenges in the effort to create jobs,
improve the quality of jobs, and provide access to jobs. One
important dimension of a good jobs diagnosis is to uncover
gender disparities in labor market outcomes and understand
the underlying factors that cause those disparities. The
Jobs Diagnostic tool enables the user to identify priority
jobs-relevant gender challenges through the production of an
extensive set of sex-disaggregated indicators and regression
analyses, employing standardized household and enterprise
data. Underlying constraints can be further explored,
through complementary in-depth analysis of country-specific
quantitative and qualitative information.
