Evidence: Provides 2025 ILO-modelled female labour-force participation rates for G20 economies.
The indicator measures labour-force participation, not employment quality, hours worked or wage equality.
Rows were filtered to individual G20 economies and ranked within the 2025 World Bank/WDI female labour-force participation indicator slice.
All rows use the same World Bank/WDI labour-force participation indicator, same 2025 period and same % of female population ages 15+ unit.
