Özet:

 The primary purpose of this research is to analyse female labor participation and information and communication technologies ICT within financial technologies. ICT has an important role in empowering women and financial participation, and at the same time, it increases womens participation in the workforce by making it easier for them to balance their work and family responsibilities. Due to cultural norms and levels of development, womens participation in the labour force is lower than that of men. Although there are numerous studies in the literature on labour force participation rates and levels of economic development, there are few studies evaluating the impact of ICT on womens labour market outcomes. While digital technologies are necessary to close the gender gap in employment, gender inequalities can still be observed in complex and highly skilled sectors such as finance and machinery manufacturing. Literature studies show that internet and mobile internet access increase the demand for female labour. Therefore, womens labour force participation rates are high in technologically advanced countries. The analysis section of the study evaluates the impact of information and communication technologies and financial technologies on womens participation in the labour force in selected Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development OECD countries. The model uses womens labour force participation rate as the dependent variable and the following explanatory independent variables: womens daily internet usage, mobile broadband internet penetration rate per capita, and womens mobile banking usage rate representing financial technologies. The relevant coefficients were estimated using panel data methods for the period 20102021.

 Bu araştırmanın birincil amacı, kadınların işgücüne katılımını, Bilgi ve İletişim Teknolojileri ICT ve Finansal Teknolojiler Fintek çerçevesinde analiz etmektir. ICT, kadınları ve finansal katılımı güçlendirmede önemli bir role sahiptir. Aynı zamanda kadınların iş ve aile görevlerini dengelemesini kolaylaştırarak kadınların işgücüne katılımını artırmaktadır. Kültürel normlar ve gelişmişlik düzeyleri nedeniyle kadınların işgücüne katılımı erkeklerden daha düşüktür. Literatürde işgücüne katılım oranı ve ekonomik gelişme düzeyi hakkında çok sayıda araştırma olmasına rağmen; ICTnin kadınların işgücü piyasası sonuçları üzerindeki etkilerini değerlendiren çalışma sayısı azdır. Dijital teknolojiler, istihdamda cinsiyet açığını kapatmak için gerekli olsa da finans ve makine imalatı gibi karmaşık ve yüksek vasıflı sektörlerde cinsiyet eşitsizlikleri görülebilmektedir.Yapılan literatür çalışmaları ,internet ve mobil internet erişiminin kadın işgücüne olan talebi artırdığını göstermektedir. Dolayısıyla teknolojik olarak gelişmiş ülkelerde kadınların işgücüne katılım oranı yüksektir.Çalışmanın analiz kısmı, seçilmiş Ekonomik İşbirliği ve Kalkınma Örgütü OECD ülkelerinde ICT ve finansal teknolojilerin kadınların işgücüne katılımı üzerindeki sonuçlarını değerlendirmektedir. Modelde bağımlı değişken olarak kadınların işgücüne katılım oranı ve açıklayıcı bağımsız değişken olarak; kadınların günlük internet kullanımı, kişi başına mobil geniş bant internet penetrasyon oranı, kadınların mobil bankacılık kullanım oranı finansal teknolojileri temsil eden verileri ele alınmıştır. 20102021 dönemi için panel veri yöntemi ile ilgili katsayılar tahmin edilmiştir.
