520 _aIn spite of the noticeable progress made in the legislation and in education, growth in the level of activity of Tunisian women has been only slow over the past three decades, a rate indicative of the difficulty of gaining access to the jobs market. Women in activity are also affected by unemployment more severely and for longer. They are more likely to have recourse to seasonal jobs and to be on low-paid work. Moreover, economic restructuring and the opening-up of markets hit particularly hard the sectors that most frequently employ women. The current trends highlight the extreme vulnerability of women’s employment to economic disturbances linked to free-market trends, and also an increasing precariousness of the posts obtained in the public services. Faced with the massive influx of women on the employment market, public policies are shown to be scarcely adequate for improving their rate of integration into the country’s economic life.
