Labour force participation rate is increased because of female participation rates increased
The Eleventh Plan (2007-12) document projected labour force growth for the Eleventh and Twelfth Plan periods using population projections and participation rates.
It noted that the overall labour force participation rate was expected to rise mainly because of the rising participation rate of women, while male participation rates were broadly stable.
Male participation was not the driver, and the projections were based on demographic and participation trends, not on demand conditions or price increases.
So the projections linked the rise in labour force participation to higher female participation.
Hence, Labour force participation rate is increased because of female participation rates increased.
