“…The regions with the lowest female unemployment rates are TR8, TR9, TR2, and especially TRA, while the region with the highest female unemployment rate in the study period,2019, is TRC. Studies of female employment and the participation of women in the labor force in Türkiye have identified education level, rural-to-urban migration, marital status, birth rate, household income (spouse's income), number of household dependents and the proportion of employment in the agricultural sector as influential factors (Yıldırım and Doğrul, 2008;Dayıoğlu and Kırdar, 2010;Kılıç and Öztürk, 2014;Kızılgöl, 2020).
