Abstract

This study examines the effects of informal employment and gender inequality on multidimensional poverty in East Java through the lens of the Capability Approach. Using 2024 National Socio-Economic Survey (Susenas) data covering 32,605 households (weighted to represent 11.2 million households), multidimensional poverty was measured with the Alkire-Foster method across eight indicators in education, health, and living standards. The findings reveal that 27.9% of households are multidimensionally poor, with an average deprivation intensity of 43.3% and an Adjusted Headcount Ratio (M0) of 0.121. Binary logistic regression shows that households with informal-sector heads are 2,1% more likely to fall into multidimensional poverty than those with formal-sector heads, while female-headed households face a 1.5% higher likelihood compared to male-headed households. These results indicate that multidimensional poverty in East Java is driven not only by demographic characteristics but also by structural labor market conditions and gender-based disparities. The study underscores the need for poverty alleviation strategies that address the vulnerabilities of informal workers and promote gender equality as integral components of inclusive development.
