The formal and
informal markets


Female workers are paid less and women are overrepresented in low productivity positions because of lower education and the social perceptions about the roles of women. Regulation of rights in the workplace is very low plus discrimination and stigma put vulnerable groups (immigrants, sex workers) at risk of violence, HIV, lower wages, unable to access other sexual and reproductive health and right services.
