The Economic Situation of Working Women in Port Said Governorate in the Period from 1986 to 2017: A Study in Population Geography

Abstract

The economic composition of the population includes the percentages of the employed, as well as the rates of the unemployed and the types of economic activities prevailing between dependent people, the elderly and children. The actual participation of females in economic activity is considered to give a real picture of productive capacities and the extent of their contribution to economic activity. By studying the actual participation rate, it turns out that the actual participation rates are fairly low in Port Said Governorate. This is due to several factors, the most important of which is the demand for university education and beyond. The actual participation of females also took place in Port Said Governorate in some neighborhoods, the most important of which is Al-Sharq district. The decline in participation in some districts such as Al- Gharb district is due to the distance. The public and social services sector occupies a large part of the economic activities of females in the province of Port Said.
