【摘要】 本文利用2017年湖北省的微观调查数据,实证分析疾病负担对农村妇女非农就业的影响。研究发现:疾病经济负担显著促进农村妇女从事非农就业,而疾病照料负担显著抑制农村妇女从事非农就业,这种影响力度随着治愈时间增加而消减。进一步异质性分析表明,不同家庭成员患病对农村妇女非农就业的影响机制不同,老人患大病所产生的照料负担会驱使农村妇女增加非农就业,且儿童患大病所产生的经济负担也会迫使农村妇女减少非农就业。基于此,本文从农村疾病防治、集体照料和灵活工作制三个方面提出相关政策建议。更多还原

【Abstract】 Based on the micro survey data of Hubei province in 2017, this paper empirically analyzes the impact of the disease burden on rural women’s non-agricultural employment. It finds that the economic burden of disease significantly promotes rural women to engage in non-agricultural employment, while the care burden of ill family member significantly inhibits their nonagricultural employment and this effect diminishes as the healing time prolonging. Further heterogeneity analysis shows that different family members decease has different influence mechanisms on rural women’s non-agricultural employment, the care burden caused by elderly’s disease drives rural women to increase non-agricultural employment while the economic burden caused by children’s disease forces them to reduce non-agricultural employment. Accordingly the paper puts forward some relevant policy suggestions covering rural disease prevention, collective care and flexible working system.更多还原
