Measuring women’s work
Purpose: To provide information
We want to know:
The status of women participation?
We want to monitor:
If there are changes in labour force participation of
women
Use information to improve policy and plans.
4. 4
Data sources
Two main data sources, which generate data
that is interpreted to support national-level
planning towards gender equality and equity.
Censuses (after every ten years)
National Household Surveys.
5. 5
National Household Surveys
Uganda National Household Surveys
every after 2 years
Other household-based surveys
include:
demographic and health survey (every 5 ),
national service delivery surveys (every 4 years)
etc
6. 6
Efforts to improve the measurement
of women’s work in Uganda
Uganda Bureau of Statistics (UBOS)
works very closely with all the
stakeholders.
UBOS together with key stakeholders
developed the compendium of concepts
and definitions used in the National
Statistical System with Gender concepts
clearly spelt out.
7. 7
Specific activities to improve the
measurement of women’s work in Uganda
Consultative meetings
Modular Approach
Gender Analysis of Census and
Survey Reports
Gender and Productivity Surveys

8. 8
Consultative meetings
Questionnaires prepared are shared out
with different stakeholders for their
input. UBOS always consults with
Ministry of Gender, Labour and Social
Development and Uganda Gender Forum.
However, it must be noted that not all
suggested questions are always
included due to limited space in survey
questionnaire.
9. 9
Modular Approach
UBOS attaches more comprehensive
modules. For example, during the
2002/03 and 2005/2006 National
Household Surveys, separate and more
detailed labour module was attached.
More detailed information on the labour
market in relation to gender and
women’s work was included.
10. 10
Gender Analysis of Existing data
Detailed gender analysis of Population and
Housing Censuses and National Household
Surveys.
Analysis of existing data reveals a number
of gender issues that were omitted.
The issues generated assist UBOS when
organizing subsequent censuses and
surveys to ensure that women’s work is
captured.
11. 11
Gender and Productivity Survey
The first ever Gender and productivity survey was conducted in
Uganda between October 2007 and February 2008
Questions developed jointly between the Economic Policy
Research Centre, Uganda Bureau of Statistics and Ministry of
Gender, Labour and Social Development.
Aimed at capturing more data particularly in the area of
women’s paid and unpaid work. The survey covered 4,291
households in the entire country.
In addition to the regular socio-economic module, individual
questionnaires were developed for women and men on assets
ownership, health, roles in decision making, domestic violence,
etc
12. 12
Gender and Productivity Survey cont..
Woman’s questionnaire
Decision regarding utilization of resources earned by the
woman
Own choice VS husband’s choice
Voluntary vs involuntary surrender of earnings to husband
This important gender dimension has often been left out
by national household surveys.
Extensive training for enumerators was
carried out to be able to fully capture women’s
contributions.
The report for this survey is yet to be
completed. Only a draft has been developed.

Knowing that women have access and
seek employment is important
But it is also important to know how

National Household Survey questionnaire, to
capture the full range of economic activities in
which Ugandan women are engaged in.
During the design of surveys, UBOS will
attempt to integrate women activity lists into
questionnaires.
