Policies that overcome the core barriers would enhance the availability of and access to good-quality education, offer skill development programmes, including women's entrepreneurship, and provide a conducive infrastructure and safe public transport to work, especially in rural areas. For example, in Bhutan, Bangladesh, Pakistan and Sri Lanka, electrification and improved access to water increased women’s time available for market work (World Bank, 2011). Policies should also ensure equal decision-making, including access to finance and such productive assets as land and capital, and improve the flow of information on the job market. A quota for women in wage employment could also be introduced, at least in sectors where women do not traditionally participate.
