摘要我们研究了秘鲁农村电气化项目对就业的影响。随着时间的推移,利用该计划在各地区的推广,我们采用差异中差异和固定效应策略来估计电气化对劳动力市场结果的影响。我们的首选规范表明,在男性中,该计划增加了工作时间,减少了从事第二职业的可能性。在女性中,这种治疗增加了就业和收入,并增加了在农业部门以外工作的可能性。
AbstractWe study the effects of a rural electrification program on employment in Peru. Taking advantage of the program’s roll-out across districts over time, we adopt differences-in-differences and fixed-effects strategies to estimate the impact of electrification on labor market outcomes. Our preferred specification suggests that, among males, the program increases hours of work and diminishes the likelihood of having a second occupation. Among females, the treatment raises employment and earnings and increases the probability of working outside the agricultural sector. JEL codes J22; O13
