Abstract
The effects of trade liberalisation on female labour depend on a country’s
socio-economic and employment sector characteristics. A Gender-aware computable
general equilibrium model is applied to Ethiopia and South Africa from a comparative
perspective. Tarif reduction results in opposite outcomes regarding gender-based wage
and labour market participation inequalities in the two countries due to their structural
differences in men’s and women’s employment.
