Labor <p>The objective of this study is to investigate the determinants of female labour force</p><p>participation in Perak, Malaysia from the demand and supply sides. This study also</p><p>examines the mean differences of skills and welfare facilities and the effects of savings</p><p>and household classification on women's employment between employed and</p><p>unemployed females, and the employers. A quantitative approach (questionnaire) with</p><p>a total of 214 respondents was chosen as a sample through a stratified random</p><p>sampling technique. The data are analysed by using the Binary Logistic Regression</p><p>Model, Mann Whitney and Kruskal-Wallis tests. The findings of the study on the Supply</p><p>side analyses had figured that age and race factors were significant at the one percent</p><p>level, while parents and spouse encouragement increased the likelihood of</p><p>employment for married women (60 times) compared to unmarried women. On the</p><p>demand side, internship experience increases womens employability (68 times), while</p><p>male employers were more likely (33 times) to hire female workers than female</p><p>employers. The likelihood of female employment increases for applicants who are selfsufficient,</p><p>but the likelihood of female employment decreases for those with significant</p><p>responsibilities at home. Working women place a higher priority on maintaining</p><p>effective time management, improving computer skills and choosing better</p><p>medical benefits. Compared to female unemployment in the B40 income group, there</p><p>are more women employed in the M40 and T20 income groups. Therefore, household</p><p>income levels in Perak can be increased if women are given equal opportunities to</p><p>enter into labour market considering that B40 families make up the largest percentage</p><p>of households in Perak compared to other states in Malaysia. The implication of the</p><p>study stresses the potential problem of market size contraction caused by the high</p><p>ageing rate and low birth rate in Malaysia. Hence, it is crucial to emphasise womens</p><p>participation in the labour market, especially for those in the B40 income group.</p> 2023 thesis https://ir.upsi.edu.my/detailsg.php?det=11877 https://ir.upsi.edu.my/detailsg.php?det=11877 text eng N/A openAccess Doctoral Perpustakaan Tuanku Bainun Fakulti Pengurusan dan Ekonomi <p>Abraham, A.
