Abstract

This research explores the contribution of female labor to economic development in the city of Makassar, using quantitative descriptive methodology. The method applied is quantitative descriptive, with sampling involving 100 female workers in Makassar. Data was collected and analyzed using multiple linear regression techniques through SPSS software. The analysis results indicate that the variables of work duration, education level, and the number of family dependents have a significant influence on the contribution of female labor in the economy. A positive correlation was found between work duration and economic contribution, where an increase in the work duration of women is directly related to an increase in their contribution to family income. Similarly, a higher level of education is associated with increased productivity and income. Lastly, the number of family dependents positively impacts women's economic contribution, indicating that women tend to increase their income to meet the needs of a larger family. This study provides important insights into the dynamics of the female labor market in Makassar and underscores the need for policies that support the full integration of women in economic development, not only as a humanitarian issue but also as an economic efficiency strategy.
