Job prospects for youth, low-skilled and women workers in the greater Mekong subregion

Abstract

This collection of research studies derived from the Greater Mekong Subregion Research Network (GMS-Net) provides detailed and comprehensive findings that have implications for research, policy and practice in the region. These projects explored and documented trends and policy reforms affecting low-skilled and young workers’ wage or job prospects in terms of labour force participation, wages, wage gaps, and women’s engagement in wage labour. Action research projects include evaluation of labour standards compliance, innovative business programs and new business practices.
