Restructuring The Welfare State Model in Turkey and Its Affect on Female Employment Issues
Journal Title: Mehmet Akif Ersoy Üniversitesi Uygulamalı Bilimler Dergisi - Year 2019, Vol 3, Issue 2
Abstract
In this study, female employment in Turkey is examined in the Welfare State Model axis. Within the scope of the study, the contribution of women's labor to the economy of the country was evaluated in the light of socioeconomic data, and the statistical data were compiled and presented to both in table and graph. Women's labor and the problems in this area have been discussed and presented to offer policy solutions. Female employment rate in Turkey is 30% according to OECD data. The reason why this rate is lower than in other countries is due to women's (perhaps obligatory) time to spend on housework. In addition, a more striking result arises from the educated population. Compared to the wages of men and women who do the same job, the wages of women are slightly lower (3/5). Even this result is a concrete indicator that gender equality has not been fully fulfilled. In other words, the equal pay approach has not been achieved. One of the problems in female employment is the care obligation. It is essential to make new institutional arrangements for both elderly and child care. The importance of early childhood care and preschool education and the determination of new social policies in this regard is one of the responsibilities of being a social state.
