Abstract

Ekonomik kalkınmanın gerçekleştirilmesinde çıkış yollarından biri beşeri sermayedir. Beşeri sermayenin geliştirilmesi Türkiye gibi gelişmekte olan ülkeler için son derece önem arz etmektedir. Bu gelişim, 2012 yılı verilerine göre Türkiye nüfusunun %49.8’ini oluşturan kadınların da işgücü piyasasına yeteri düzeyde katılımı ile gerçekleştirilmelidir. Sürdürülebilir kalkınmada önemli bir unsur olan kadın işgücü, özellikle gelişmekte olan ülkelerde temelde kültürel faktörler, beşeri sermaye düzeyindeki farklılıklar ve kadınların emek piyasalarındaki konumlarını düzenleyen/etkileyen kamu politikaları gibi çeşitli nedenlerden dolayı emek piyasasına yeteri düzeyde katılamamaktadır. Bu durum eksik istihdam, GSYIH’nin artırılamaması, yoksulluğun artması, verimliliğin azalması gibi önemli sorunları da beraberinde getirmektedir. Çalışmada öncelikle kadın işgücünün ve kadının işgücüne katılımının ekonomideki önemi belirtilmekte, seçilen gelişmekte olan ülkeler bazında mevcut durum incelenmekte ve Türkiye örneği üzerinde durulmaktadır.

    Note: [English Title] The Problem of Women’s Employment and Turkey [English Abstract] One of the main pillars in achieving economic development is human capital. Development of human capital is of utmost importance for developing countries such as Turkey. This development may be realized by adequate participation of women, who constitute 49.8% of the population of Turkey as per 2012 data, to the labor market. An important element of sustainable development, woman labor is unable to participate in the labor market, particularly in developing countries, due to various reasons lead by cultural factors, differences in the human capital level and public policies that regulate/affect the position of women in labor markets. This brings about such significant problems as underemployment, failure to increase the GDP, increase in poverty, and drop of productivity. This study first discusses the economic importance of women labor force and participation of women in labor force, examines the current situation in selected developing countries, and the example of Turkey is further analyzed [English Keywords] Employment, Women Labor, Turkey
