Preface

The Gender perspective is imperative to formulate and enforce a holistic, inclusive and non-

discriminatory regime of policies. As an indispensable prelude to this end, the “Compendium on

Gender Statistics 2004” presents gender disaggregated data on population, education, health,

family planning, employment and public representation. Besides, international comparison of

some important gender sensitive indicators has also been included to provide for collective self-

reflection.

This document is an up-date of its maiden predecessor of 1998, prepared in accordance with UN

standards and international practices, under the financial and technical assistance of the Asian

Development Bank. Despite no project facilitation and, exclusive reliance on mail inquiry, all

possible efforts have been made to collect the latest available data from the sources.

I am thankful to Dr. France Donnay, the Representative of UNFPA who kindly agreed to provide

support in publishing this document and hope that the database developed in Federal Bureau of

Statistics would be useful for the researchers, policy makers and students to help underpin an

analytical framework in the pursuit of an all-inclusive and non-discriminatory polity and economy

of Pakistan.

Comments and suggestions for improvement would be welcome and highly appreciated.

Chapter 1

This chapter presents historical trends in country's population during 1947-98, its distribution by sex, pattern of its growth during inter-censal period, percentage changes, urbanization, sex ratios and age composition. 1.1 Population Size And Trends The population of the country at the time of Independence, which was 32.5 million is put into perspective on the basis of decennial censuses as under:- Table 1.1 Population of Pakistan

Years Population in Thousand(s) 1947 1951 1961 1972 1981 1998

Source:1.Population Census 1951,1972, 1981 and 1998. 2. Estimate for 1947. Thus, in just 51 years (1947-1998), the population has registered fourfold increase. With the population of 132.4 million in the year 1998, Pakistan is ranked as seventh most populous country in the world after China, India, USA, Russia, Indonesia and Brazil. Time series of census figures make a steeply rising step function, particularly, in post- 1961 period.

1.2 Proportion of Population The Proportion of Population in each province showed a slight variation in the year 1998 over the proportion as obtained in 1981 census. NWFP, Sindh and Islamabad have slightly gained, while Punjab, Balochistan and Federally Administered Tribal Areas have pared a bit down. This may be due to in or out migration and over and under coverage in the earlier census. Table 1.2 Province-wise Population Distribution of Pakistan- 1998

However, the population of women has increased more than four fold whereas that of men slightly lesser during the same period, which is in consonance with the inherent survivability of females.

Source: Table 1.4 1.4 Gender Composition and Sex

Ratio As the table 1.5 below depicts, the sex ratios of women per 100 men as obtained from the past five population censuses indicate that there has been less number of women than men in each period. However, there has been a progressive convergence towards better gender poise due perhaps to faster decline in the level of female mortality. Nonetheless, the sex ratio at birth has generally been between 105 to 107 males per 100 females in the country. As far urban - rural difference, the lower sex ratio in urban areas is not surprising because men, while moving to urban areas for job and other work leave, generally, women folk behind in the rural areas.

1.5 Rate of Population Growth Intercensal growth rates rose rapidly in the post-independence period to peak in 1972 (3.7%). Thereafters a slow decline is discernable. Women grew higher than men in each census year. The intercensal average growth rate per annum is estimated 2.8% for women and 2.6% for men during the period 1981-1998. If the same trend of population growth continues, the population of women will double in next 26 years, two years ahead of men’s (28 years) (Table 1.6). Table-1.6 Average Growth Rate Per annum (%)

The percentage change in population, instead of a mildly ascending exponential curve, has fallowed a bi-modal pattern for both genders in the intercensal periods. It peaked in 1972 followed by a relatively higher peak in 1998. However, the figures for women have consistently been higher vis-à-vis that of men. For explanation, the variable profile of coverage can be cited as one of leading factors in this regard. Table-1.7 Percent Population Change Pakistan 1951-1998

The urban population at the time of independence stood at 15.4% of total population scaled up to 17.8% in 1951 in the spell of four years. The following censuses are nigh equally spaced in this regard, though, the last one (of 1998) records a relatively bigger stride. Gender prism reflects a less variable pattern. Apparently, the terms of trade in the favour of industrialization-the trend setter of urbanization-vis-à-vis agriculture have not been consistent over the periods under discussion .

There were only 11 cities in 1961 with more than 100 thousand population and the population size ranged from 1.913 million for Karachi to 0.107 million for Quetta. The number of such cities increased to 23 in 1998, i.e. thirteen more cities had crossed 100 thousand population in 37 years. In terms of size, population of Karachi, the largest city, reached to 9.339 million in 1998, whereas population of Lahore was reported 5.443 million. Faisalabad with population of 2.009 million was third largest city. The population of these three cities stood at 5.208, 2.953 and 1.104 million respectively in 1981. The respective average annual growth rates 3.45, 3.32 and 3.58 speak volumes about exponential growth in the size of cities.

Source: Table 1.8 1.8 Age Composition The age structure is an important feature of a population, as it brings forth the role of fertility, mortality and migration. The age distribution of women as well as men tilts heavily towards younger and economically un-productive ages. However, percentage of population below 15 years age has declined from 44.5 percent in 1981 to 42.4 percent in 1998 (over a period of 17 years). Graphically, population of Pakistan constitutes a broad based pyramid, with high population at younger age groups. 14.8 % are under 5 years whereof 14.52 % are male and 15.10 % are females. The progressive narrowness of the pyramid at the

adult ages to a very thin peak puts question mark on the state of longevity in Pakistan. 1.9 Median Age and Index of Aging The Median age provide reference to reflect on the age composition of the population. The median of women (7.6 and 18.2 years) and men (8.5 and 18.2 years) in the consecutive censuses of 1981and 1998 respectively, adduces the prevalence of high fertility and low longevity with oblique reference to the unenviable gender scenario. The population of 65 years and above is considered old in Pakistan. As such the index of ageing defined as the ratio of population 65 years and over to the population under 15 years of age, seems to be on decline (table-1.8). This trend is clearer in case of women.

The index figures give further credence to the observation made in the preceding paragraph 1.10 Children, Youth and Elderly Population The share of children under 15 years of age remained well nigh same (43%) in all head counts. The figures for males and females also constitute nearly invariant series with 23% and 21% as the respective measure of central tendency. However, lower figures for women defy explanation when judged in relation to their higher biological survivability.

1.10.1 Youth Population Aged 15-29 Years The population aged 15-29 years, categorized as primary youth, has gradually been ebbing. The same holds true more for men than for women. This scenario does not provide unmixed rumblings of some imminent demographic shift. The near-steady proportion of women might keep the fertility form falling whereas sagging percentage of men might raise the threshold of nuptiality.

1.10.3 Working Population Aged 15-59 Years During the time span marked by the censuses, the working population (aged 15-59 years) forms a sagging trajectory with a sort of resurgence in 1998. This is in consonance with the course of labour emigration. The descending proportion of men and ascending ones of women also impart credence to the aforementioned observation.

2. Fertility and Mortality Indicators This chapter highlights some of the important demographic indicators such as, fertility and mortality rates, marital status, age at marriage and life expectancy. 2.1 Marital Status According to 1998 census, almost 96 percent of women and men were married before reaching 40 and 50 years of age respectively. The data of marital status for both sexes indicated that 63.4% of total population 15 years and above were eventually married, 5.4% widowed and 0.34% divorced and 31.2% never married. This underscores universality of marriage in Pakistani society. Table-2.1 Marital Status of Population Age 15 Years and above by Sex and Age, Pakistan 1998

Nuptiality starts earlier for women as compared to men right from latter teens. The vertical ascent is also steeper. It also peaks five years earlier.

For advance years, it is women who end up living alone, perhaps due to relatively higher longevity as compared to men who are more taken to remarriage. The relevant figures of divorces and widows bear out the same observation. .

2.2 Currently Married Population In tune with the general perception, the census 1998 finds matrimony much more prevalent in rural areas as compared to urban areas. This gap however tends to narrow down in the higher age groups. Generally nuptiality is higher for fair sex for all age segments. The level of the pertinent figure in census 1998 indicate decline as compared to that of census 1981.

This owes to a number of factors such as pursuit of educations, employment and rising threshold of pre-requisites to effect the matrimonial contract. Men follow the same pattern but not so tellingly.

The average age at marriage of women has scaled five points up from 16.7 years in 1961 to 22.3 years in 2003, vis a vis three for men (23.3 to 26.4 years). The difference between age at marriage of male and female fluctuates between 6.6 to 4.2 years during the same period. Since society is generally patriarchal, the dynamic of age and sex differentials reinforces the prevailing social norms. Table-2.4 Mean Age at Marriage by Sex, Pakistan, 1961-2001

2.5 Crude Birth Rates (CBRs) Pakistan demographic survey (PDS) provides declining time series of CBRs. It is descends from 40.6 of 1990 to 26.5 in 2003. Decline in rural areas has been much steeper than in urban areas. It appears that, with the expansion of secondary and tertiary activities, the social norms sprouting from the dependence on primary occupation are bringing the family size into sharp focus. Gender disaggregation is patterned on the same lines. Table-2.5 Crude Birth Rates of Pakistan Based on Census and Surveys, 1990 to 2003

2.6 Age Specific Fertility Rates ASFRs have generally been declining. However, the women in latter twenties, latter thirties and forties portray regressive undercurrents. The foremost group forms the peak segment of the histograms both of an year and across the years. It appears that society is bracing up for lower fertility, but to ease the travails of transition, pent up fertility is partly finding expression in latter years of the matrimonial relationship.

2.7 Mortality Indicators The state of mortality was always analyzed from data as obtained in censuses and surveys. There are however, limitations to obtain reliable and accurate data on the occurrence of deaths in the country. Deaths are usually under reported as compared to births. The CDRs make mildly declining time series. However, curvature is a bit steeper for the rural areas. It appears that spread of health supporting facilities in rural habitats have been catching up with that of urban locations.

2.8 Crude Death Rates By Gender Gender specific CDRs influence the age-specific sex ratio and, by the same taken, the entire range of socio-demographic factors. Save the period of early childhood and that of child bearing age, female mortality in the later years is lower as compared to men’s. This is an indication of women’s inherent resilience in the nature’s scheme of ensuring continuity of human race. Table-2.9 Crude Death Rates By Gender, Urban-Rural Area, Pakistan

Infant mortality rate is one of the best indicators to reflect upon the state of general welfare. The IMRs exhibit a mildly decreasing trend though with cyclical curvature.

2.10 Gender Infant Mortality Rates Beholding the time series through the prism of gender it appears that urban environment is more congenial to female infants as compared to rural. Given the congenital resilience of female infant, it translates into their better survivability as compared to their male compatriots. However, obverse picture prevails in rural areas.

2.11 Age Specific Death Rates (ASDR) by Gender Longitudinally, ASDR tend to be cyclical though with mildly falling vicissitude. They follow a slanting U shaped pattern across the age groups with longer prong for the first year of life and shorter one for fifties and beyond. Congenital resilience of female is evident from its markedly lower size as compared to that of males. Rest of the U does not reflect a discernable gender bias except a mild strand in the early sixties.

CHAPTER – 3

3. Household and Family Structure This chapter describes some salient features of households and family structure such as household size, headship, age and marital status of heads of household and type of family. 3.1 Housing Stock

A household is usually defined as comprising of one or more persons, related or unrelated who make common provision for food or other essentials for living. According to the data of national population and housing censuses and selected household sample surveys, there were 7.8 million household units in 1960, which increased to 12.6 million in 1980 and 16.5 million in 1990-91 as computed from data of Pakistan Demographic Survey (PDS) 1990-91. At present there

are 19.7 million housing units in the country as reported in 1998 Population and Housing Census. 3.2. Head of Households by Gender As the table 3.1 reflects, Pakistan is predominantly a patriarchal society. However, women headship has also been gaining some ground, perhaps, more due to migration of men than any significant socio-cultural/attitudinal shift. The provincial profiles also bear out the aforementioned observation. Since men’s migration is common spectacle in Punjab and NWFP as compared to Sindh and Balochistan, the women headship of household has been on assent in the former two provinces both for rural and urban areas as compared to latter provinces where socio-cultural milieu puts much premium on soil-based identity and wresting economic opportunities as a means to social advancement is not too strong there to induce men’s migration in the pursuit of self-actualization. .

As a matter of fact, matrimony is the basis to claim the headship of a household. Consequently, households headed by unmarried persons is not a common

14

spectacle and appear to exist as transitory/stop-gap arrangement. The household surveys (HIES/PIHS) range unmarried headed households three to four percent for men and less than one percent for women, Longitudinally, it is a receding phenomenon. About ninety percent of the household are headed by currently married men as compared to four to five percent headed by the women of the same category. High correlation of the status of household headship with that of currently married indicates that nuclear family structure is gaining ground as a dominate form of household. The time series adumbrates that patriarchalism is ceding a bit to matriarchalism apparently as an expediency and not by design. Owing to the lingering sanction of the matrimonial contract, the widow headed households are obviously more numerous than headed by unmarried persons. A trace number of divorced also finds catapulted to the same status, probably, due to carry over responsibilities of their truncated households.

3.4 Age Structure of Gender Headship Age structure of gender headship bears out this status as a masculine prerogative. Significant start to pick up its gauntlet takes place in early twenties to spike in early forties and curve mildly down to the minimum in early sixties. An apparent scaling up beyond that can be attributed to open endedness of the age interval. Women follow the same pattern, though, fare enormously lesser than their men compatriots in sync with patriarchal composition of Pakistani society, characterized with a raft of socio-cultural inhibitions on the mobility and initiative of womenfolk.

However, it is higher needs relating to initiative and enterprise where women have to scale up a twisted trajectory. Table-3.4 Average Household Size by Gender, Place of Residence, Pakistan

Smaller households tend to get fewer with the passage of time. This descent gets flatter for higher numbers till it changes into ascent for the “seven plus” household size. Since fertility has, at least, not been increasing, the trend towards larger household size might have emerged as a means to come to grips with the impact of receding social security cover and rising unemployment/poverty.

3.7 Family Structure Pakistan, being a predominantly Muslim society, is characterized with the universality of marriage. Both nuclear and extended family interact on the same continuum. Almost 94 percent women aged 30 to 34 are currently married. According to the findings of Pakistan Demographic and Health Survey, 1990-91, most of the women are married to close relatives. Only 37 percent of married women were not related to their spouses before marriage. Consanguineous marriage is more common in rural families, particularly, in extended families. The data on teenage pregnancy and motherhood from the same survey indicates that sixteen

16

percent of teenagers (women age 15-19) were reported as pregnant with their first child. The percentage rises rapidly with age as only 6 percent of women at age 15 or 16 became pregnant or mother, compared to 31 percent of those of age 19. Polygamy, though allowed with the written consent of the first wife, is not a common practice. PDHS Survey 1996-97, finds only 5 percent of currently married in a polygamous union. The divorce rate is very low in the country due to low level of social tolerance. Woman can also seek divorce

under law provided the court is convinced of the casus belli.

CHAPTER – 44. Health Profile This chapter give an empirical brief overview of the state of health care and its concomitants such as health facilities, health manpower, morbidity, causes of deaths, disability, anemia and nutrition etc. 4.1 Health Care According to the country’s constitution, the delivery of health services lies with the provincial governments. The federal government is mainly concerned with formulation of National Health Policy, Co-ordination of Provincial Health Services and Health Training Standards. However federal government is responsible to provide health services directly in the federally controlled areas. Three health care systems namely Allopathic, Unani and Homeopathic are working in the country. Public health care employs the foremost system only. Due to financial constraints, the rate of expansion of public health facilities and qualified manpower has been too inadequate to provide for universal access, particularly, in rural areas.

The government health services are generally available in the daytime. However emergency remains open round the clock . A large number of private practionners (Doctors, Paramedics, Hakims, Homeopaths, Paramedics and faith healers) are also available in day and evening time with considerable clientele. 4.2 Health Delivery Facilities At the time of independence Pakistan inherited very poor health infrastructure, which included one medical college and 78 doctors in the country. There were in all 1105 health delivery facilities in 1947,.comprising of 292 hospitals, 722 dispensaries and 91 MCH centres spread over the whole country Notwithstanding steady expansion of health facilities in the post independence period, the goal of universal access still eludes general populace. Table 4.1 provides post 1998 scenario of the expansion of health facilities in public sector. It is evident that except MCH centers and Sub Health clinics, health facilities have not increased on a promising scale. This owes to the much pointed out low status of social sector in the scheme of national priorities.

To supplement the normal health facilities, a special programme known as "Prime Minister's Programme"(PMP) for Family Planning and Primary Health Care was initiated during the year 1994. This special programme established a new cadre of service provider through Lady Health Workers for rural areas. The Lady Health Workers are normally from local community and work in the same area. They provide services for Maternal care, Infant care and Nutrition, diarrhoea disease control, Acute Respiratory Infections (ARI), Immunization, community Hygiene and sanitation and also to take care of sick persons. They keep a link with RHC, BHU, FWC centres, RHS centres (Family Planning Service Outlets). These women are appointed on contract basis over a period of time. Table 4.2 presents data for 2004.

4.2.2 Urban - Rural based facilities: On the average one facility is available for 10905 people and one bed is available for 1478 persons. As for area wise distribution of facilities, the top curative facilities (hospitals) and reproductive health centers (MCH Centres) are concentrated in urban localities whereas primary health care centers (RHC/BHU) are located in rural areas. As a result the distribution of beds is also skewed in favour of urban areas. A comparison of service provider by gender indicates that women as doctors, LHVs, Nurses, Mid wives and Lady Health Visitors have surpassed the number of male personnel deployed in the Health sector. Deployment of women as Lady Health Visitors will certainly lead to better state of women health especially in rural areas.

Trends 4.3.1 Medical and Dental Doctors As of 2004, there are 5144 medical doctors and 597 dentists registered with Pakistan Medical and Dental Council. As the table 4.3 portrays, the lady practitioners has more than catching up with their men compatriots over time. It is, interalia also due to our conservative social dispositions which find doctor’s

and teacher’s profession compatible with our national ethos.

4.3.2 Paramedics and Auxiliary Health Workers . The LHVs are the next important service provider in the health sector after doctors. They are posted in MCHs,RHVs, BHUs, etc. In the foremost case, they head the facility. Nurses and mid wives as auxiliary of the former, constitute indispensable rank and file of the health facilities. The temporal profile of employment in the aforementioned activities betokens a creeping social and attitudinal change towards gender equity in the domain of economic opportunities Table-4.4 Number of Registered Lady Health Visitors, Nurses and Mid Wives, Pakistan 1997- 2003

Institutes 4.4.1 Medical Colleges As of 2003-04 there exist 30 medical colleges in the country of these, two (2)-one in Punjab and other in sindh are exclusively for women. It is pertinent to mention that in all of the remaining 28 medical colleges, seats are reserved for women as well as they are also eligible to compete for general seats. Medical colleges are operating both in public and private sector. In the latter category, those of Agha Khan, Hamdard and Baqai are the vanguard Medical Colleges. In addition, there are four dental colleges in the country. In the context that dental hygiene is the most visible

22

sequel to and attendant with the human’s life routine, it is difficult to explain low number of dental colleges. Perhaps, social image of dentist is profiled in comparison with medical doctors to the disadvantage of the former which translates in to inadequate availability of aspirants. As a sequel to soaring cost of medical counseling /medicines and limited access to/decrepit state of, public health facilities, alternative treatment facilities are on rise. In 2003-04, 28 tibbi and 106 homeopathic colleges were imparting instructions to a growing number of customers-the relevant figure are presented in Table No.4.5.Women constitute larger part of the enrolment in medical colleges. This spectacle is beholden to our socio cultural preferences whereby medical and teaching are deemed as the best professions to situate women in public life. The spectrum of regional enrolment by gender situates NWFP, Balochistan, Islamabad, Sindh and Punjab in a sequence of declining masculinity. As for seats of instructions in alternative treatments, both tibb and homeopathy are predominantly masculine professions, particularly the former one. Regional profile of enrolment in the alternative treatment’s seats of learning portrays Sindh and Punjab as the most preferred pastures of its practitioners. The relevant figures are provided in Table No.4.6 Table-4.5 Number of Medical Colleges by Gender and Area 2003-04

The teaching community of medical colleges is predominately masculine. Only one fourth (781) of the total strength (3031) are women teachers. Regions also reflect similar disparities with Balochistan constituting the extreme case. It seems that medically qualified women, being extremely short in supply, do not find teaching as economically preferred option in the face of rising demand for women medical practitioners.

4.5 Disabled Population A person is generally classified as disabled who suffers from physical or mental defects whether natural or acquired which create major hindrances in the participation of normal day to day activities. The categories of disability include blind, deaf and dumb, crippled, mentally retarded, Insane and others like multi handicapped due to old age. In Pakistan, focused initiatives have seldom been taken to collect social statistics, particularly on the prevalence and magnitude of impairment and disability. However, on the basis of information collected through population censuses of 1961, 1972, 1981, 1998 and other relevant surveys government has setup a number of institutions for the welfare of disabled community. According to population census1981 rural areas account for 56.7 percent women and 43.3 percent men out of the total disableds vis a vis 42.0 percent and 58.0 percent of census-1998. Similarly, urban areas fared at 50.9,49.1 percent and 41, 58.9 percent in the referred consecutive censuses. . The information pertains only to the blind, deaf and dumb, crippled, mentally retarded and other persons with related impairment. The comparative data reflect that urban women are more shielded. The obverse situation prevails for men. 4.5.1 Blind In 1981 census, there were 66.9 percent rural blind women as compared to 33.1 percent blind men. The

23

comparative figures for urban areas were 65.5 and 34.5 percent. In 1998 there were 45.6 percent blind women and 54.4 percent blind men in rural areas, whereas urban blind accounted for 43.9 and 56.1 of women and men respectively. Since blindness has causal nexus with nutrition and environment, its higher incidence in women puts questions mark on the status of female baby in the scheme of social preferences. 4.5.2 Deaf and Dumb The census 1981finds 61.4 and 38.6 percent of the deaf and dumb women and men in rural areas as compared to 43 percent deaf and 56.9 percent census 1998. For urban areas, the comparative figures for the referred consecutive censuses fare at 61.2, 38.8 percent and 43.0, 57.0 percent. The observation made in case of blindness, vide 4.51, again resonate in affirmation. 4.5.3 Crippled The census 1981 finds ruralites accounting for 49.7 percent of crippled women and 50.3 percent crippled men as compared to 39.5, 60.5 percent in census 1998. The comparative figures for urban areas in the referred consecutive censuses stand 44.9, 55.1 percent and 37.3, 62.7 percent respectively.

Seeing through gender prism, it appears that, factors entailing crippling impairment, tend to concentrate in those activities which have traditionally been the men’s preserve. 4.5.4 Mentally retarded As per census 1981, ruralite women and men account respectively for 49.2 and 50.8 percent of the mentally retarded persons viz a viz 46.3 and 53.7 percent of 1998. The comparative figure for urban areas in the consecutive census stand as 39.8 vs 45.9 percent and 60.2 vs 54.1 percent respectively. Urban localities appear to be less congenial for the relatively more emotional brains of the fair sex. 4.5.5 Other disabled Rural women and men fare respectively at 52 and 48 percent of other disabled in census 1981 as compared to 42.2 and 59.8 percent of census 1998. The comparative figure for urban areas in the consecutive census stand as 41.6 vs 39.4 percent and 58.4 vs 60.6 percent. Since men are answerable to the whole range of residual assignments, they are more exposed to the hazards of unspecific disablement as compared to women..

CHAPTER 5 5. Family Planning

This chapter briefly presents synopsis on Family Planning relating to service delivery facilities, man power and gender based level of knowledge, attitude, ever and current use of contraceptives.

5.1 Programme

Family planning had made its beginning in Pakistan as early as 1953 in the private sector by a non-government organization (NGO). The Family Planning Association of Pakistan (FPAP). The Government of Pakistan allocated Rs.5 million in the Ist plan (1955-60) as a grant to this organization to provide contraceptive advice and services. The Population Welfare Programme as a regular governmental programme is of second Five Year Plan 1960-65 vintage. It proceeded modestly during 1960 - 1987. However significant progress was achieved during seventh and eight Five Year Plans when the Contraceptive Prevalence Rate increased from 9 percent of in 1984-87 to 24.0 percent during 1996-97. During 1994-95, 90.5 percent of currently married women reported contraceptive knowledge of one modern method, which increased to 93.4 percent in 1996-97. It hovers around the same level as the figure of 93.6 percent during 2003 (Table 5.1) bears it out. The International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD) held in Cario in 1994 recommended to promote family planning as an integral part of reproductive health and not in isolation. The Plan of Action defined the reproductive health as a state of complete physical, mental and social being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. This clearly implies that reproductive health services have to be integrated with family planning and these services to be made accessible and affordable to all couples have right to have safe methods of their choice. Under the umbrella of new concept of reproductive health, all service outlets of Health Departments and Population Welfare including NGOs and Social Marketing of Contraceptives have now been formulating their strategies to promote family planning as an important element among other parameters of reproductive health. These strategies altogether would have hopefully been gaining ground to enhance contraceptive use during

the Ninth Five Year Plan 1998-2003, as there is now an evidence that a dent has been made in fertility. 5.2 Service Delivery Facilities The service delivery outlets under the Population Welfare Programme are (i) Family Welfare Centres (ii) Reproductive Health Service Centres (iii) Mobile Service Units and (iv) Village Based facilities to outreach currently married women throughout the country. The husbands may and do also accompany their wives to these facilities. The dispensation of contraceptives services varies facility to facility. The Family Welfare Centres provide contraceptive delivery on cafeteria system i.e. IUD insertion, oral pill, condom, injection and also provide treatment for minor ailment and to some extent, MCH services. The reproductive health services provide mainly female sterilization, in addition to IUD insertion, oral pill, injectable and condom apart from counselling and treatment for infertility. About 30,000 commercial outlets of Social Marketing and 750 service outlets under NGOs are also dispensing contraceptives. The Mobile Service Units provide services on the basis of out reach approach as per their scheduled visits in the vicinity. In addition to dispensation of contraceptives, medicines are also provided for minor ailment to the desiring persons and do take care of follow-up and improvement of quality of service provided through Family Welfare Centres. 5.3 Knowledge of Contraceptive

Methods The ratio among currently married women who reported knowledge of at least one contraceptive method fared at 90.7 percent in 1994-95, which increased to 94.3 percent in 1996-97. The figure for the year 2003 ( 94.1 percent) hover in the same vicinity . Similarly, the percentage of currently married women who reported knowledge of one modern method increased from 90.5 of 1994-95 to 93.4 in 1996-97 and 93.6 percent during 2003 (Table 5.1). It appears that the complete diffusion of the knowledge of contraceptive needs to catalyze universal access to attendant services has been achived.

5.4 Ever Using Contraceptives by Methods

According to National Institute of Population Studies, percentage of ever users of any modern method stood at 36.0 during 2003.Provincially, Balochistan forms the loose end of the continuum. However, the figures of the most urbanized province of Sindh do cast some damper on the expected nexus between city culture and demand for contraceptive services. The percentage of users of Condom, Pill, Injection, IUD, Female Sterilization, Male Sterilization, any Traditional Method, Periodic Abstinence, Withdrawal and any Method was 13.1, 10.2, 10.1, 9.4, 7.7, 0.2, 12.9, 5.4, 9.4 and 41.8 respectively(Table 5.2). A common strand is implicit in the relative percentages; there is an inherent choice for reversible modality.

Methods among Currently Married Women

National Institute of Population Studies finds that during 2003 one fourth of the currently married women did use any specific method. The percentage of current users of Condom, Pill, Injection, IUD, Female Sterilization, Male Sterilization, any Traditional Method, Periodic Abstinence, Withdrawal and any Method was 6.4, 3.1, 3.4, 4.4, 7.5, 0.2, 6.8, 1.7, 4.9, and 32.1 respectively (Table 5.3).As mentioned earlier, the choice for reversible methods particularly on the part of women is also evident. Similarly, the observation regarding Sindh and Balochistan hold in this case as well.

Among Currently Married Women by Place of Residence, Pakistan, 2000-01 and 2003.

Queerly, national scene reflects that the awareness of modern methods by place of residence appears to have curved down during the triennial period 2000-03. The two eastern, more populous, urbanized and prosperous provinces follow the national pattern where as the two more rural, less populous and less endowed western provinces reflect an exception. It appears that instinctive urge to proliferate as a consequence of poverty has been giving way to calculated, socially palatable and humane approach of containing population growth.

Among Currently Married Women by Educational Attainments, Pakistan, 2000-01 and 2003.

The level of educational attainment and awareness of modern method do not exhibit a clear functional relationship. It appears that currently married women, are equally exposed to the flow of contraceptive information irrespective of their educational attainment. It implies that society, particularly womenfolk, has well taken the rationale of arresting population growth, though, with a pinch of salt as the fall of percentages over time signifies. And this pinch of salt puts the lack of universal access to the delivery of cheap services into sharp focus.

Married Women Ever Used Any Specific Methods Pakistan, 2000-01 and 2003.

The rising profile of the captioned percentage over the comparative periods hold out promise for containing population growth. The figures also portray an overall tilt in favour of modern methods which underscores that recourse to contraceptive services is made more as a part of conjugal life and less as an expedient way out of unforeseen compulsions.

5.9 Percentage Distribution of Currently Married Women by Knowledge of Specific Method by Type and Areas

29

As observed earlier in the case of similar tabulations, married women reflect an inherent bias in favour of reversible methods. Of late, the relatively strenuous method of implant and socially non palatable method of male sterilization have been gaining ground with the passage of time. However, the spectacle of falling number during the comparative periods poses big question mark. Perhaps the same growing lack of access to/affordability of contraceptive services holds the explanation. This contention is also evidenced by the declining expenditure on social sector.

The profile of the captioned knowledge fares less than exhaustive. The word “source” holds explanation as it brings forth the universality of access to and affordability of contraceptive services into sharp focus. Mercifully, the figures reflect an asent over time led by

increasing recourse to relatively more strenuous (implant) and socially less palatable (male sterilization) methods. As for provinces, Balochistan has of late been moving from the loose end to the tight segment of the continuum made up of other brothers in federation.

CHAPTER - 6

This chapter mainly focuses on education and education related issues such as literacy, enrolment,

educational attainment, growth of educational institutions and teachers etc.

6.1 Literacy level

The consecutive censuses find the overall literacy rate for the population 10 years and above an increasing function of time. However, considerable part of population is still illiterate as the figure of census 1998

(44%) bears out. As for gender differentials, men’s better halves have been proceeding ahead one and half times faster to catch up with them. In so far as this contrast is sharper in rural than urban areas it appears that socio-cultural constraints lurking behind rural-urban divide are fast relenting with the passage of time, particularly, from the perspective of gender equity.

Schools 6.2.1 Primary Schools Primary schools are the main determinant of literacy level as well as a great social equalizer. The gender symmetrical expansion in their numbers ushers in deepening of social capital. The boys and girls schools make a secularly ascending time series. Mixed schools-due to their transient status i.e. a mixed schools is likely to assume gender tag if enrolment tilts in favour of a gender-form a bumpy trajectory through time though the crests are getting more numerous and elongated.

6.2.2 Middle Schools At the out-set, the time series of middle school is, more or less, akin to that of primary schools. However, the number have been rising more consistently. Similarly, mixed schools traverse a bumpy ride through the tabular period. Longitudinally, the number of middle schools speaks of gravitation towards gender poise.

6.2.4. Arts and Science Colleges After discounting for the “headstartness” of the time series of boys colleges, longitudinal trajectory of girls colleges do not betoken gender skewness. Arts and science colleges have been increasing for both sexes which implies that system’s inhibitions to embrace gender equity relent a lot in the domain of tertiary education. It may be due to society’s subliminal realization that tertiary education, owing to high threshold of entry in terms of resources, is inherently preserve of privileged classes.

6.2.5 Number of Professional Colleges

Professional colleges (table 6.6) depict an entirely

male-led growth over time. Women colleges traverse a

nigh flat and wavering trajectory. This scenario owes to

a number of socio-cultural and economic factors;

preeminence of nuptial bond as the foremost concern of

women which translates into weak clientele/demand for

women colleges, weak demand for women

professionals due to their culturally reinforced

preoccupation with traditional role as housewives and,

of course, an attitudinal aversion to savour women’s

economic independence. Time series on the number of

universities (table-6.7) reflect the same pattern with

more intensity to give credence to explanatory words

jotted afore in the case of professional colleges.

6.3 Enrolment Status- Public Schools Enrolment starts from class I at primary school, to continue up the ladder to higher level. Some time, though, rarely, students are also enrolled in higher classes of primary schools after getting preparatory coaching at home. For enrolment in a primary school, 5 years age is fixed both for girls and boys. 6.3.1 Primary School Enrolment Primary school enrolment forms an evenly rising step function of time. It lost some steam just before the turn of century to regain thereafter. From female male perspective the former have always fared at one half of the latter. However, incipient twenties do reflect a visible trend towards narrowing down of gender differentials in enrolment. Table 6.9 Primary School Enrolments

6.3.2 Middle and High School Enrolments Middle school enrolment form a segmented trajectory. A rising early nineties, flat later nineties and an ascending incipient twenties. As for boys and girls enrolment in the same periods, the former’s trajectory remained more than two times higher than that of the latter’s. This gulf began to narrow down in mid nineties continued as such steadily in latter nineties and nascent twenties. In general, pattern of enrolment by gender is in sync with that of the overall enrollment. As middle school enrolment later on constitutes almost all of high school enrolment, the latter’s profile both in toto and by gender is akin to that of the former’s.

6.3.4 Professional Colleges Enrolments Enrolment in professional colleges, after rising steadily in better part of nineties has since platoeued. As for boys and girls enrolment, both have experienced enervation during biennial period marking the turn of the century to recoup thereafter. This enervation also dents the total’s trajectory in the opening year of the incipient century. Historically, the size of girls enrolment in the professional colleges has been to the tune of one-third of that of boys. This may be, interalia, due to shortage of women colleges, socio cultural inhibition to get enrolled in mixed colleges, low supply of female candidates due to high incidence of nuptiality.

6.3.5 Universities Enrolment University enrolment follows the dynamics of college enrolment. It has been rising during nineties and unfurling twenties save a little enervation in a couple of years both proceeding and proceeding the biennial period marking the turn of century. Female enrolment fared at less than one-fourth of the males’s gradually rose to figure at one half as much. Boys enrolment has been proceeding faster than girls’s. Ala total enrolment, male and female enrolment also reflect enervation on a couple, though a lead, points of time. Table 6.14 Enrolment in Universities

6.4.3 High School Teachers

The time series of high school teachers ala that of middle school’s portray the same mixed rise during the period. Gender disaggregation reflects the similar

pattern. The numbers have generally been rising after the turn of the century. Similarly, the gulf between the number of male and female teachers have been diminishing over the time. Table 6.17 Number of High School Teachers

6.4.4 College Teachers College teachers has been rising series in the better part of nineties. However, it has since 1997-98 platoeued to spike in 2003-04. It appears that tertiary education has lost a bit steam due, probably, to the combined effect of

IMF’s spearheaded austerity, falling clientele as a sequel to weak prospects of employability and shrinking affordability resulted by rising poverty and scaling down of subsidized education. Gender disaggregation is also patterned similarly. However, the difference between comparative figures of male and female teachers has been narrowing down the chronological lane.

6.4.5 Professional College Teachers Teachers of professional colleges traverse the time lane through a step function of four distinct, nigh flat segments of early nineties, mid nineties, latter nineties and post nineties. For explanation it can be argued; since tertiary education requires secular planning, its predicatives can not be changed in the short term. Gender disaggregated series mirror the same segmented time trajectories. However, the wide gulf between the time series of male and female teachers endures throughout the tabulated time period to latter’s disfavour. Putative socio-cultural factors can be cited as an explanation in this regard. Table 6.19 Number of Teachers

6.4.6 University Teachers University teachers constitute curvaceous, secularly ascending series. This might be due to the fact that, by virtue of their lofty educational clibre, they are prone to high occupational mobility. Men teachers also traverse the similar trajectory. Women teacher, which fare at one-fourth of the men’s count, form a relatively consistent series, tending to catch up with

that of men’s in post nineties. The expansion of university education indicates that probably, the social inhibition to combined education has of late been relenting fastly.

6.5 Results Statistics

41

6.5.1 Matriculation Examination Comparative result statistics of the years 2003 and 2004 constitute an interesting contrast. The ratio of appeared in the matric Arts group 2003 is equivalent (50%) for either gender whereas fair sex excels over “condescending sex” in pass percentage (62 vs 38). The comparative figures in 2004, with the exception that composition of “appears” is also more feminine, are well nigh in consonance with those of 2003, particularly, in the case of pass percentage. This spectacle reflects an oft-observed but half-accepted reality that, even after discounting for the socio-cultural conditioning, fair sex has an inherent edge in “passionate faculties”. The matrix of comparative figures interchange the cells when it comes for science group. In 2003, “condescending sex” scores higher in both categories of “appeared” (73 vz 27%) and passed (69vz 31%). As if to impart a sense of dejavu, the result statistics of 2004 beget the congruous percentages for “appeared (72 vz 26%) and passed (70 vz 30%). It can be said at the risk of sounding presumptuous that dispassionate faculties tend to be characterized with masculine “lesser half” of homo sapien. As for regional alignment the two western, less urbanized and conservative, provinces provide an exception in the Arts group while, only south eastern province is odd man out in the case of science group.

6.5.2 Intermediate Examination (Faculty of Arts and Science)

As to sound epiphanous, men’s better half proves her matier in humanities-the domain of passion meticulousness, and transformation. The percentages of girls and boys in the category of “appeared” (51 vs 49) and “passed” (58 vs 42) in 2003 are proximate to the comparative figures of 2004 i.e (52 vs 48) and (60 vs 40). Pre-engineering or by the same token, engineering, being more exacting in terms of brawn and brain- the spring heads of detached, dispassionate and transactional behavior-appears to be forte of the Adam’s sons. In 2003 boys vis a vis girls constitute the top quartiles whereas girls form the bottom one both in term of “appeared” (82 vs 18%) and “Passed” (82 vz 18%). Fortuitously, the comparative percentages in 2004 viz (83 vs 17) and (82 vs 18) tend to further point up the observation. However it is advisable to take the stock of socio cultural and institutional factors which tend to impede girls in the pursuit of career in engineering fields.

Though, pre-medical as a precursor to career in medical profession, requires both transactional and transformational demeanour, it is the latter trait which determines the mind set and skill profile of a successful practitioner. That is why girls tend to edge ahead of their boy compatriots. The 2003’s percentages of girls and boys in the category of “appeared” (50 vs 50) and “passed” (57 vs 47) in comparison with that of 2004 viz (53 vs 47) and (50 vs50) tend to make the point.

Chapter 7

7.1 Labour Force Participation Rates The most common indicators of participation in economic activities are the Crude Activity Rate, the Refined Activity Rate and the Age Specific Activity Rate. In order to reckon with the influence of cultural, socio-economic and geographical factors, it is often recommended to calculate these rates by sex. They are defined as: -

i) Crude Activity (Participation) Rate (CAR) is the percentage of persons in labour force to the total population.

ii) Refined Activity (Participation) Rate (RAR) is the percentage of persons in labour force to the population 10 years of age and above.

iii) Specific Activity (Participation) Rates are the percentage of persons in the labour force with a specific characteristics (age, level of education, marital status, etc.) to the total population with the specific characteristics. For example, if we want to have the age specific activity rate for females in the age group of 20-24 years old, we must divide the number of active females 20-24 years old by the total number of women in that age group.

A comparative picture of crude participation rate based on current and 2001-02 Labour Force

Survey is given in table-7.1. The crude activity rate ascends marginally from 29.6% in 2001-02 to 30.4% in 2003-04. Rural rates have scaled up higher relative to urban rates, which adumbrates osmosis of more activities into informal sector. The same observations hold with respect to area and gender as well. Punjab’s crude participation rates for both sexes are the highest among the provinces. Crude participation rates for Pakistan by sex, rural/urban areas and provinces are presented in table-7.1. For obtaining a better measure of the labour participation, especially of females, a few new questions to net in a set of economic activities likely to be carried out within house premises were introduced in Labour Force Surveys, from 1990-91 onwards. Table-7.1 shows that the augmented female participation rates (i.e. 26% in 2001-02 Vs 28% in 2003-04) are substantially higher than shown by the extant methodology (10% and 11%). This ratchets up the overall participation rates significantly (37% in 2001-02 Vs 39% in 2003-04) without altering the relative profile overtime. However, due to steeper decline in the urban women’s participation, the new urban rate loses a wee bit to level down during the comparative periods. The same generally holds for provinces as well.

Ala crude activity rate(s), refined activity rate has increased from 43% in 2001-02 to 44% in 2003-04. Provinces also line up in the same order and, males participation rate (71%) is over four-times higher than that of females (16%). Similarly, female refined participation rates obtained through augmentation are substantially higher. The new refined rates behave in line with their crude twins along the area, province and gender. Rising rural (and stagnating urban rates) bespeak expanding frontiers of informal sector. A comparative picture of refined activity rates for Pakistan and its provinces by rural and urban areas for the current and 2001-02 surveys are given in table-7.2.

Table7.3 (and figure 7.2) presents a comparative picture of age specific participation rates for Pakistan by sex based on 2001-02 and 2003-04 Labour Force Surveys. The rates appear to follow a platty kurtic dome-shaped trajectory through the age intervals with relatively flatter tail for later part of life. This observation holds irrespective of gender. Invariably, this pattern befits the government’s delimitation of productive life years. Further, female participation in all age groups have leveled higher in 2003-04 which may be due to increase in informal particularly, farming activities.

7.2 Labour Force: Absolute Figures The absolute figures of labour force have been calculated by multiplying crude participation rate of the respective survey year with the estimated population as on 1st January of that year. The numbers of employed and unemployed persons have been obtained by multiplying the labour force with percentages of employed and unemployed persons. It is observed that 45.23 million of the total population are currently active, termed as “Labour Force”. The labour force has increased from 42.39 million in

2001-02 to 45.23 million in 2003-04. The volume of labour force has increased in all provinces irrespective of area and gender. However, the volume of male labour force has shrunk slightly in rural NWFP, probably, due to declining farming opportunities and, rural pathan’s historical penchant for breaking new grounds especially in trade and commerce. Absolute figures of labour force for Pakistan and its provinces by rural and urban areas for the current and 2003-04 surveys are given in table below.

7.3 Employed: Absolute Figures The number of employed persons has increased from 38.88 million in 2001-02 to 41.75 million in 2003-04. This increase has been noted across the board irrespective of gender, area and province. However, the

volume of male employment in rural NWFP remained at the same level in the comparative years. It bespeaks that farming has progressively been losing its capacity to keep the incremental labour force productively in situ. The details are given in table-7.5

The volume of unemployed has reduced from 3.51 million in 2001-02 to 3.48 million in 2003-04. Rural area has followed the national pattern while urban

2

has surged in the number of unemployed persons, on account of rise in male unemployment. It points out obliquely that traction of secondary and tertiary activities has a bit slackened in the referred period. Punjab, with relative fall in both gender and area specific unemployment, stands out vis a vis three smaller provinces where unemployment leveled higher across gender and area during the comparative periods. 7.5 Employed: Major Industry

Divisions Agricultural and allied industry, with 43% of the total employed in 2003-04, levels one percentage point higher as compared to 2001-02. As for gender composition, male employment declines while

female’s climbs more than 2% up. Contrarily, the non-agriculture sector portrays a sort of enervation. For instance, employment in construction sector is down from 6.1% in 2001-02 to 5.8% in 2003-04 and community, social & personal services loses a half percentage point from 15.5% in 2001-02 to 15% in 2003-04. Thus, employability of secondary and tertiary activities has generally decreased. This-in the context of increase in primary (agricultural) sector’s employment, especially, of females-owes, probably, to creeping atomization (informalization) and/or, fall in the infusion of technology (investment). Other sectors almost remain unchanged. A comparative picture of the proportions of persons employed in major industry divisions during current and 2001-02 surveys is given in table-7.7 Industrial distribution of employed persons is shown in figure-7.3.

7.6 Employed:Major Occupational

Groups As per comparative Labour Force Surveys, employment in all occupational groups has, more or less, flattened/stagnated except in "skilled agricultural and fishery workers"(34.7 versus 34.9%) followed by “elementary (unskilled) occupations" (19.4 versus 20.3%), together accounting for more than half of the employed labour force. It seems that former is home to incremental female labour force as its growth is female-led exclusively. Obverse

dynamics of growth prevails in the latter one. Female employment has scaled down across-the-board except in “skilled agriculture and fishery workers” whereas men’s employment notched up in the top (legislators, senior officials and managers) and bottom (elementary occupations) rung of the occupational hierarchy. Percentage distribution of employed persons by major occupational groups for the years 2001-02 and 2003-04 is given in table-7.8 Occupational pattern of employed persons is indicated in figure-7.4.

7.7 Employed: Employment Status Employed persons are denominated mainly as employees, self-employed, unpaid family helpers and employers. During the comparative periods, the two foremost categories have receded whereas the last one nigh fared at the same level. Thus, the profile of activities likely to siphon labour force from unorganized into organized sector has weakened comparatively. A conspicuously women-led surge in the third one (unpaid family worker) gives credence to the aforementioned observation. Majority (38%) constitutes employees followed by self-employed (37%), unpaid family helpers (24%) and employers (1%). As expected, more female workers are engaged as unpaid family helpers (53%) compared to male workers (18%). Contrarily more male workers are engaged in the category of self-employed, employees and employers. Comparative data for the current and 2001-02 surveys is given in table-7.9.

Worked During the Week Of the currently employed persons, 0.7% constitutes the group of people had a job attachment but did not work last week due to certain reasons. On the other end of the spectrum lies a large proportion (31%) of employed persons worked 56 hours or more a week. However, 14% of the employed persons falls left to the water shed “35 hours a week”, liable to be bracketed as under employed. The corresponding figures for urban (8%) and rural (17%) areas points out prevalence of under employment in the latter. However, the predominant proportion (more than 80%) of overworked persons which lie to the right of “35 hours a week” obliquely brings forth the prevalence of lower than subsistence wages in the (fractured) job market. Percentage distribution of employed persons by number of hours worked during reference week for the current survey is given in table 7.10.

7.9 Employed: Informal Sector Currently, true to the often-held contention, informal sector accounts for 70% of the employment in main jobs outside agriculture sector. In the same refrain, percentage of employed involved in informal sector (73%), in rural area, is higher compared to that of urban areas (67%). As expected, formal sector activities are more concentrated in urban areas (33%) as compared to rural areas (27%). Since informal activities are predominantly non-agrarian, male workers are relatively more concentrated in informal sector both in rural and urban areas of the country. Informal sector’s employment has surged by five percentage points from 65% in 2001-02 to 70% in 2003-04, irrespective of gender and area. For explanation, the aggressive consumer finance schemes launched by various financial institutions is one of the important reason. However, inhibiting influence of government’s long held predilection to generate revenue by hook or crook can not be discounted altogether as a reason for surge in informal activities. A comparative picture of the proportions of persons employed in non-agriculture sector into formal and informal for the current and 2001-02 surveys is given in table 7.11.

Divisions According to classification of the informal sector employment by major industry divisions, the largest slice (35%) goes to wholesale and retail trade. Manufacturing sector ranks second with about one-fifth (21%) followed by community, social and personal services (19%), construction (13%) and transport (11%). The other categories including mining & quarrying; electricity, gas & water and finance, insurance, real estate & business services

account for less than two percent. Comparative Labour Force Surveys indicate relative decline in all categories except “wholesale and retail trade” and “others” grouping. Both groups reflects relative rise in the male employment. Males employment forms a bit skewed unimodal pattern peaked in wholesale and retail trade while females employment is bimodally apportioned with maximas lying in manufacturing (57%) and community and social services (34%). Percentage distribution of informal sector workers by major industry divisions for the years 2001-02 and 2003-04 is given in table 7.12.

Occupational Groups Majority (31%) are reported as craft and related trade workers. Nigh a quarter (25%) are legislators, senior officials & managers. About one-fifth (23%) are engaged in elementary (unskilled) occupations. Services workers, shop and market sales workers rank fourth (10%) followed by plant & machine operators & assemblers (6%), technicians & associate professionals

(4%) and professionals (2%). As expected, occupational distribution of workers is marked by wide sex differentials. Figures on males sit in the vicinity of overall pattern at wide variance with that of females. Further, apportionment of number among activities is, relatively, more even for men than for women. Craft & related trade activities, home to three-fifth (59%) of female and more-than-one quarter male workers (28%), constitute peak irrespective of gender. Among the sizeable groupings “plant and machine operators & assemblers” and “legislators, senior officials and

57

managers” reflect male dominance in the same order. “Professionals” and “technicians and associate professionals” are more tuned to women. “Elementary Occupations” tend to be gender neutral. Except the grouping of legislators, technicians, clerks and elementary occupations, all reflect relative decline

during the comparative period. A comparative picture of the informal sector workers classified by major occupational groups for the current and 2001-02 surveys is given in tables 7.13.

7.12 Informal Sector: Employment

Status The employment status categorizes majority (44%) as self-employed followed by employees (43%). The former, embracing majority (45%) of men and latter, containing better part (46%) of women, are mutually obverse in gender skewness. About one in ten workers (12%) are reported as unpaid family helpers and one & a half percent are identified as employers. The former is home to two-time more women vis-à-vis men while the latter in acutely men centric. As far change in the comparative periods, unpaid family workers, employees and self-employed reflect a modicum of ascent in the same order while employees category a bit recedes. It seems that organized activities tend to concede ground to unorganized ones during the referred periods. Percentage distribution of informal sector workers by employment status for the years 2001-02 and 2003-04 is given in table 7.14.

7.13 Employed: Occupational Safety and Health

Questions on occupational safety and health, introduced firstly in Labour Force Survey for 2001-02, are asked from the employed persons ten years of age and above. About one out of thirty-three (2.8%) employed persons has reported some sort of occupational injury/disease. Explicably, the percentage suffered finds male workers (3.2%) more vulnerable relative to female workers (1%). Same holds for rural workers (3.1%) vis-à-vis urban workers (2.2%). Nevertheless, urban women (0.5%) is much more shielded in comparison with her rural and urban compatriots of same and opposite sex. Susceptibility to occupational hazards has slackened over time across the area and gender. However, the lot of urban women has improved most eminently. Comparative status of occupational injuries/diseases for the years 2001-02 and 2003-04 are given in table-7.15.

7.14 Occupational Safety and Health:

Major Industry Divisions Well nigh half (45%) victims of occupation hazards belong to agricultural sector. Manufacturing account for about one-seventh (15%), followed by construction (11%), community, social and personal services (10%), wholesale & retail trade (9%) and transport, storage and communication (9%). From the gender perspective, women are twice as much exposed to risk as men in agriculture (80 Vs 43%). Contrarily, men are thrice (10 Vs 3%) in wholesale and retail trade. Both categories reflect deterioration over time evenly be gender. Incidence of risk in

manufacturing has changed from gender neutral (15% both for men & women) in 2001-02 to gender partial (15 Vs 8%) in 2003-04 in favour of women. Community, social and personal services display improvement in the comparative periods evenly for men & women. Construction also fared well during the comparative periods marked by Labour Force Surveys of 2001-02 and 2003-04. Percentage distribution of employed persons suffered occupational injuries/diseases by major industry divisions for the years 2001-02 and 2003-04 are given in table 7.16.

Major Occupational Groups Ala the pattern of major industry divisions, majority of sufferers (39%) are concentrated in skilled agriculture and fishery activities. Comparative survey figures (38 Vs 39%) don’t bespeak improvement over time. Women’s exposure to risk has increased from one and half (56 Vs 36%) of men’s in 2001-02 to more the twice (76 Vs 36%) in 2003-04. Since three-fourth of women victims belong to this group, one need not be feminist to get alarmed. Craft & related trade activities and elementary occupations are the next major occupational groups (21%) followed by legislators, senior officials & managers (6%) and plant and machine operators & assemblers (6%). The former two reflect, more or less, flip-side of the state of occupational safety during the comparative periods. Men’s exposure to risk has increased steadily whereas that of women steeply declined. Profile of the second group is much sharpers relatively. The latter two groups exhibit improvement during the comparative periods. Gender composition of the incidence of occupational health hazards remains same over time in the 1st one. No such observation seems to be in order for well nigh masculine group of “plant and machine operators and assemblers”. Other relatively minor occupations have experienced a slight decline in the proportions of suffered workers. Distribution of employed persons with reported

occupational injuries/diseases by major occupational groups for the years 2001-02 and 2003-04 is given in table 7.17. 7.16 Occupational Safety and Health:

Employment Status Quite explicably, the majority (49%) of sufferers falls in the category of self-employed, The comparative proportions (46% in 2001-02 Vs 49% of 2003-04) adduce risk as increasing function of time for self employed. Further, self-employed men’s exposure to risk has increased during the comparative periods whereas that of women has declined steeply. The second important category is employees (41%) followed by unpaid family helpers (10%). Both groups seem to be improving over time. The former reflects sharp improvement in the lot of women as comparative proportions (27% in 2001-02 Vs 7% in 2003-04) bear out. The latter-home to 70% of women sufferers-paints acutely rising exposure to risk from four times (41% Vs 10% in 2001-02) to more than eleven time (68% Vs 6%) as higher as that of men. This bespeaks “much lesser half” status of the female unpaid family helpers. Employers with insignificant proportion appear to have arrogated themselves preeminent claim over safety regime. Percentage incidence of occupational injuries/ diseases by employment status for the survey years 2001-02 and 2003-04 is given in table-7.18.

7.17 Occupational Safety and Health: Types of Treatment Received It is observed that majority (61%) of the sufferers are reported to have consulted a doctor or other medical professionals. Of the total, 19% have taken time off work and 12% have been hospitalized. Seen in the context of relative rise in former and, decline in latter two activities, it appears that affordability to pursue treatment is on decline, probably, due to lack of financial support, paucity of facilities, strict regimentation at the work place. According to gender composition of the tabulated categories, women have got more savvy for doctor’s advice relative to men (64 Vs 61%) Similarly, women appear to be better disposed to take time off work (21 Vs 19%). However, the event of hospitalization, though significantly men-centred, has declined gender-neutrally during the comparative periods. Auspiciously, non category-stemming, probably, from aversion/inhibition/lack of access to doctor’s advice-has also declined steeply. The remaining 8% did not avail themselves any of the aforementioned option. Percentage incidence of occupational injuries/diseases by type of treatment received for the years 2001-02 and 2003-04 is given in table 7.19

7.18 Occupational Safety and Health: Parts of Body Injured Majority of the workers (45%) received injuries of general nature, followed by the injury of lower limb (20%), upper limb (16%), multiple locations (9%) and head injuries (7%), which should be noted with concern, as it can cause death, partial or complete disablement and loss of intellectual abilities. The foremost category reflects increasing women’s exposure to risk from equal (52% each) in 2001-02 to twice (82 Vs 43%) as higher as that of men. Better coverage/reporting might well be one of the reasons. Incidence of limb injuries have been on rise. More men with rising incidence over time have been succumbing to this type of affliction as opposite to women. “Multiple location” type has shrunk over time, steeply for women whereas, gender neutral incident of head injury has mercifully been sagging in frequency. Proportions for trunk injuries across the time and gender, levels, more or less, same in 2003-04 except for women, where no trunk injury has been reported. Percentage incidence suffered occupational injuries/diseases by parts of body injured for the years 2001-02 and 2003-04 is given in table 7.20.

7.19 Unemployed Labour Force: Unemployment Rates

Unemployment rate is defined as the percentage of unemployed labour force to the total labour force. The data shows that overall unemployment rate has decreased from 8.3% in 2001-02 to 7.7% in 2003-04, due, mainly, to steeper decline in women’s unemployment (17 Vs 13%) vis-à-vis that of men (6.7 Vs 6.6%). Age specific unemployment rates form a spectrum of two-different hues. The 1st one encompasses three up-start age groups (10-24) with respect to size of unemployment. This grouping exhibits women-led decline in unemployment overtime. Men’s unemployment has also shrunk except for the latter most (20-24) interval. The 2nd part of the spectrum spans over seven age groups between 25 to 59 years. This part reflects mildly rising men-led profile of unemployment over time save for the fourth (40-44) and last two (50-59) age interval. Women’s unemployment has consistently been on decline across the constituent age intervals. The unemployment rates of beyond retirement age may partly be accrued by the re-entry of retired people into economically active life because of the absence of social securities for them. The unemployment rates as revealed in current and 2001-02 surveys may be seen in table7.21 and figure 7.5.

The over all unemployment rates in Pakistan seems low. In the absence of social security and unemployment insurance schemes, remaining out of work is hardly workable proposition even after retirement. In order to eke out something to make the both ends meet, even partly, the bulk of population must engage all the times in some sort of economic activity, irrespective of the size of earning. Thus, a vast proportion of people worked less than” 35 hours a week” notwithstanding their quest for alternative or additional work, may be considered as employed at fringe or, at best, underemployed. Unemployment rate in 2003-04 whittles down to 8.9% if persons worked less than 15 hours during the reference week are treated as unemployed. Unemployment has thus receded during the comparative periods, steeply for rural areas and fair sex. The comparative picture of unemployment rates including underemployed (worked less than 15 hours during reference week) by sex and area for the Labour Force Surveys, 2001-02 and 2003-04 is given in table.

Source:-Labour Force Survey, 2001-02 & 2003-04 7.20 A Look at Officialdom Government employees constitute three tiers of the mainstream official hierarchy viz Federal, Provincial and Local. Annual census is conducted to document

federal employees by grade, gender and postings. No such documentation is carried out for other tiers to provide the data in a comprehensive publication. Further, employment profile of autonomous/semi-autonomous organizations is not accessible with requisite adequacy, reliability and timeliness. Thus, notwithstanding unstinting and targeted mail enquiry,

64

the profile of the pertinent data from provincial and local bodies is fragmented and sketchy. However, to afford an indicative assessment of the obtaining situation in the provinces, data from the responding organizations have been compiled. Obviously, in keeping with the general perception, women do not seem to be factored-in as a formative underpinning to draw up the employment profile. Though empirical basis for making inter-provincial comparison regarding the gender composition of the employees is not strenuous, it can be argued that the ratio of female employees does not bear defining nexus with the prevalence of conservative values. In this connection, a multitude of factors interact in a complex way. However, nodal significance and seminal preeminence can be ascribed to the primeval, endemic and systemic obsession of the feudal classes-reinforced by the unending spell of non representative dispensations-with the continuation of their hold on power. Since women participation in public life at par with men does not fit well with a compliant and subservient power matrix, the entire repertoire of activities constituting polity and economy becomes unrelenting for any regimen of gender poise. The tables No.7.24-27 profile government employees on availability basis. The responding organizations have been listed at the bottom of the tables.

7.21 A Peep in to Financial Institutions Financial Sector is broadly categorized as banking and non banking financial institutions (NBFIs). The former are regulated by State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) whereas the latter are controlled by Security and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP). Since financial institutions are presumably the most documented sector of an economy, expansive and incessant mail inquiry both at operational and apex level was made to coax out the gender disaggregated employment data. It is jarring to point out that after a long last, we could collect scheduled banks data whereas SECP’s dominion did not relent much save for a blurred peep. Nevertheless, the evolving composition of financial sector employees does signify a sort of shift towards gender poise. However, the unfolding scenario is hardly paradigmatic in the sense that placement of women in the hierarchy still smacks of an exercise in window dressing. Thus, better part of the men’s better-halves at best constitute rank & file and adore window seats to deal with the sight smelling customers. The tables No. 7.29-33 profile gender composition of the financial sector employees. In order to impart a sobering rather sombring reflections on the poor response from NBFIs, lists of the names of non responding agencies is given in the end of report.

CHAPTER - 8 8 Women Role in Public Life This chapter briefly describes the participation of women in public life such as elected representative in the Parliament i.e. National and Provincial Assemblies and Senate, ministerial positions, women associations and groups working for women rights, women in media and women in development. 8.1 General Elections The latest general elections to the National and Provincial Assemblies were held in the year 2002. These were the fourth mid term elections in the series due to dissolution of the National and Provincial Assemblies during the period 1990 to 1999. 8.2 Number of Seats in National and

Provincial Assemblies and Senate There are 342 seats in the National Assembly. Of these 332 are reserved for Muslims and 10 seats for minority communities. There are 728 seats in four Provincial Assemblies altogether. Of these 705 are Muslim seats and 23 seats are reserved for the minority communities. Women are legally allowed at par with men to contest election on any seat for the National and Provincial Assemblies. There are 100 seats in the Senate (known as upper house). Of these 66 seats are general and 17 are for women and 17 for technocrats. The provinces have equal number of seats (14 seats for each province plus 4 special seats). In addition, 3 seats for Federal Capital and 8 for Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA). The elections for Senate are not conducted by direct cast of votes from electorol comprising women and men voters registered with the Election Commission of Pakistan. Instead, elected members of the provincial assemblies elect senators on provincial basis, whereas, the senators from the Federal Capital are elected by the members of the National Assembly and senators from FATA are elected by their elected members of the National Assembly. Special seats for women which were allowed till 1988 were abolished in 1990 and 1997 general election. But decision was reversed in election 2002 to allocate 60 and 17 seats in National Assembly and Senate respectively.

8.3 Registered Votes/Voters participation

Every Pakistani 21 years and above was eligible as voter to National and Provincial Assemblies. All of 71.9 million Muslim votes for both sexes registered in provinces / area in general election 2002, were declared eligible to cast votes to candidates with free choice. Of these 33.2 million (46.1 percent) were women and 38.7 million (53.9 percent) men. Table 8.1 As for relative turn-out the past four elections point out a decling trend.

There were only 2 women members in the National Assembly of 1990 (0.9 percent) against 215 men members. The number of women members improved slightly in the National Assembly of 1993 and 1997. In order to raise women’s representation in all tiers of elected institutions, their seats have substantially been increased in election 2002. There are 73 (21%) women members in National Assembly now vis a vis 269 men members. Table-8.3 Elected Members to the National Assembly By

Women senator has always been a rare spectacle. There was a single woman in the Senates of 1990 and 1993. In 1997 Senate, their number rose to 2. However, of late the women seats in Senate, ala N.A & P.A have been increased manifold. As a result, the senate in seat has 18 (18%) women members. Here an observation appears to be in orders; the women’s representation in all walks of the life can only be realized if their access to the pivotal equalizers i.e education and health is ensured across the time and space.

Their main focus is advocacy of women rights, and representation. A lot are also engaged in substantive activities in the pursuits of women uplift. Some others are running crises centres

and performing distress management. The prominent among them include like All Pakistan Women Association (APWA). Aurat Publication & Information Service Foundation. Women’s Action Forum. Mother Trust. Maternity & Child Welfare Association of Pakistan. Family Planning Association of Pakistan. Pakistan Labour Liberation Front (BLLP) etc.
