The aim of this study is to explore the
relationship between women's labor market outcomes and
partner violence among Tanzanian women, and to estimate the
difference in women's weekly earnings between women who
have been abused and women who have not. In addition, this
study estimates the lost earnings to women because of
partner violence as a share of Tanzania's gross
domestic product. Partner violence is the most common form
of violence against women and the adverse consequences for
women s health have been well documented. Few studies have
estimated the economic costs of partner violence in low- and
middle-income countries and current evidence suggests that
the cost is large. Using data from the nationally
representative 2008-2009 Tanzania National Panel Survey, the
study uses propensity score matching methods to estimate the
difference in women's earnings from formal waged work
and non-agricultural self-employment. Data on women's
earnings from agricultural self-employment, the largest
employment sector for women in Tanzania, were not collected
in the survey. Findings from this study reveal that partner
violence is pervasive in Tanzania and that abused women earn
less than women who have never been abused, with the
greatest loss of earnings experienced by women in formal
waged work (compared to women in non-agricultural
self-employment) and by women in urban areas (compared to
women in rural areas). |
