Employed Women, Dropping Out of the Labor Force

A recently jobs report coverage has shown an interesting point that the unemployment rate fell due to a decline in the number of women labor forces in the labor market. Normally, people might assume that the reason why someone give up to look for a job in the job market is because those people have lost a job for a certain years and thus lost an incentive to keep looking for a new job . Yet, according to the figure studying the women who dropped out of the labor force in November by their status in October shows a different trend. It revealed that over 58% of women who are employed before they quit their jobs. It means that women are quitting their job intentionally. It might further verify that women have a better performance than men in the recent decade.
