- Source: Authors’ calculation based on EPH data. Note: Probit estimates. The sample includes inactive women or men (head of household or spouse). The age range is 20–60 for women and 20–65 for men. The dependent binary variable equals 1 if the individual initially inactive experiences a transition to an active labor status. To apply a diff-in-diff specification, we include variables Treat (equals 1 for eligible inactive women—with children in poor and informal households), After (equals 1 for the period 2010–2013), and the interaction between them. We also add other control variables: age, squared age, educational level, marital status, binary indicators of the head of household and of whether the individual (or her/his spouse) is in charge of household chores, labor status of the spouse, per capita family income, family size, number of members by age and gender, region fixed effects, and time fixed effects (quarters). Clustered robust standard errors in parentheses. ***p < 0.01; **p < 0.05; *p < 0.10
