Abstract
The Global Disaggregated Labor Database will fill an important information gap in global gender statistics by providing detailed accounts on employment levels, wages, labor income, and employment status at detailed economic activity. Until now, only data in broad sectors is available for cross-country comparisons. This effort is intended to have a direct application in applications involving computable general equilibrium (CGE) modeling of the impacts of trade policy changes in developing countries. However, other types of modeling frameworks including macroeconomic modeling can benefit from such database.
