印度实施了全球最严格的封锁措施之一,以遏制COVID-19疫情的蔓延。根据牛津大学布拉瓦尼克政府学院制定的严格指数,截至2020年3月25日,印度已经达到了最高的严格水平(指数值= 100)。这意味着所有经济活动几乎完全停止。这次关闭对劳动力市场有什么影响?总失业率的大幅度增加是一级效应的明显表现。然而,大流行及其后果是一个伟大的平等?封锁对劳工的影响是否不分性别?封锁如何影响国内时间分配,特别是花在国内工作和与朋友相处的时间?鉴于封锁是不分性别的,这些变化是性别中立的吗?
India imposed one of the strictest lockdowns in the world to contain the spread of COVID-19 pandemic. According to the Stringency Index developed by the Blavatnik School of Government at the University of Oxford, by the 25th of March, 2020, India had already reached the highest possible level of stringency (index value = 100). This involved a near-complete shutdown of all economic activity. What were the labour market implications of this shutdown? The first-order effects are evident in the massive increase in total unemployment. However, is the pandemic and its aftermath a great leveller? Are the labour implications of the lockdown gender neutral? How did the lockdown affect domestic time allocation, in particular time spent on domestic work and with friends? Were these changes gender neutral, given that the lockdown was gender blind?
