In response to 'Lalaine' - a study of the Philippines labor force shows that the working-age population grew by 2.7% in the 1980s while the labor force (people in that age group who were actually employed) grew by 4%. Still, unemployment, which had averaged about 4.5% during the 1970s, increased drastically following the economic crises of the early 1980s, peaking in early 1989 at 11.4%. The International Labor Organization reports unemployment was 8.7% in 1997, 10.1% in 1998, 9.8% in 1999 and 11.2% in 2000. As underemployment also increased, about 20% of male household heads and 35% of female household heads reported, in 1980-85, being unable to find more than 40 days of work a quarter. In 1997, a little over 11% of the people reported being underemployed; by 1998, this number was just under 12%. Overall, urban areas fared worse than rural areas. Given this scenario, migration increased. Today, the Philippines has a labor force that is among the world's largest. Its unemployment rate, according to the latest reports (for 2002), is at 10.2% |

Hi Evah, more than 54% of all Filipina women are employed, of who about 12% are industrial workers, 27% agrcilture laborers, and 61% service workers. Women make up 66% of all technical and professional employees in the Philippines. There's no readily available data on annulment of marriages in the Philippines, but you could try making enquiries through www.isiswomen.org. |

Hi Abiegaiel, the Young Adult Fertility and Sexuality project of the University of the Philippines Population Institute, reported that the average age for the first sexual intercourse for both men and women is 18 years, 15.4% of women aged 15 to 24 engage in premarital sex, 23% of women ages 15 to 24 are sexually active, and that more than half of these said that their first sexual intercourse was either unplanned and/or unwanted, with 4% said they were forced to have sex. Also, 40% of sexually active women aged 15 to 19 did not use any contraceptive method during the first sexual intercourse. According to a study by the Philippines Department of Health in 1999, 20% of Filipino women by age 19 are married and/or with children.
