DETERMINANTS OF THE FEMALE LABOR FORCE PARTICIPATION RATE AND TESTING THE U-CURVE HYPOTHESIS IN INDONESIAPages 227-234
Abstract:
This research aims to determine the influence and test the validity of the U-curve hypothesis on the level of education and economic growth on the female labour force participation rate in Indonesia. The type of data used is secondary data in the form of panel data, with time series data from 2006 to 2022, while cross-section data was taken from 34 provinces in Indonesia. The regression model uses the Fixed Effect Model (FEM). The results of this study show that labor force participation is influenced by educational levels that have not/did not graduate from elementary school, elementary school, and diploma/graduate/university level. In contrast, the level of education at junior high school and high school and economic growth have no effect. The hypothetical phenomenon of the U-curve in Indonesia's female labour force participation rate is illustrated by the relationship between primary school and junior high school education levels.
Keywords: Female Labor Force Participation Rate, Level Of Education, Economic Growth, U-Curve Hypothesis.
