A Brief Insight into Gender Inequalities in the Czech Labour Market
Original language description
This article looks at women in the Czech labour market. Labour market participation is considered a fundamental factor influencing childbearing decisions and one that may contribute to low fertility. Since 1989 the Czech economy has undergone profound changes. Therefore, the article examines how the position of women in paid work has changed. It studies gender inequality in the labour market in the Czech Republic in 1993-2013 based on publicly available data from the Labour Force Survey (LFS). It also uses data from the EU Statistics on Income and Living Conditions (EU-SILC) for the Czech Republic in 2012 and employs a multinomial logistic regression to illustrate the factors that influence gender inequalities, which in the article are approximated by type of employment contract. The basic results show that there are persistent gender inequalities in the Czech Republic and that, depending on age, education, and having at least one dependent child, women are less likely than men to have a full-time job.
