Focusing on Egypt and Jordan, the study produces policy recommendations in two directions: On the one hand, addressing the cultural and wider societal barriers to female employment which may be giving unequal access to jobs (both in occupational and in remuneration terms). On the other hand, developing enabling policies for increased female labour force participation, such as extension of childcare provision and especially maternity leave and pay.en-USOctober University for university of FeminizationWage DiscriminationGenderArticle
