Vulnerable employment, female (% of female employment) (modeled ILO estimate)
Data are drawn from labor force surveys and household surveys, supplemented by official estimates and censuses for a small group of countries. Due to differences in definitions and coverage across countries, there are limitations for comparing data across countries and over time even within a country. Estimates of women in employment are not comparable internationally, reflecting that demographic, social, legal, and cultural trends and norms determine whether women's activities are regarded as economic.
Vulnerable employment is contributing family workers and own-account workers as a percentage of total employment.
