| Description: | This paper explores the impacts of demographic, technological, and structural transformations on the work of men and women in the People’s Republic of China. Three types of gender-based constraints that hamper inclusive growth are identified: gender gaps in educational attainment; gender stereotypes affecting employment decisions; and competing demands of work and family, especially on women. The paper recommends (i) investing in rural women with a targeted approach, (ii) developing elderly care services, (iii) tackling gender stereotyping and segregation in occupations, (iv) increasing public spending on early childhood education and care, and (v) considering pension reform. |
