Employment Percent of currently married women and men age 15-49 who were employed in 12 months before the survey More men were employed in the last year than women. 75% of women compared to nearly all men were employed. 2

Type of Payment Percent distribution of payment type among currently married women and men age 15-49 who were employed in 12 months before the survey The large majority of working women and men earn cash (61% and 82%), while 20% of women and 7% of men are not paid. Men are more likely to be paid in cash than women. 3

Control over Woman’s Earnings Among currently married women age 15-49 who received cash earnings, percent distribution by person who decides how woman’s earnings are used Nearly half of women who are currently employed and earning cash made independent decisions on how to spend their earnings. 41% of married working women made joint decisions with their husbands on cash earnings, while 9% report that their husbands made the decision alone. 4

Ownership of House and Land Percent of women and men age 15-49 Men are more likely to own a house, alone or jointly, than women (49% versus 42%). Men are also more likely to own land, alone or jointly, than women. 5

Women’s Participation in Decision Making Percent of currently married women age 15-49 who usually make specific decisions by themselves or jointly with their husband The 2014 KDHS asked currently married women about their participation in four types of household decisions: her own health care, making major household purchases, visits to family or relatives, and what food should be cooked each day. 73% of women have sole or joint decision-making power about visiting family or relatives and participate in decisions about major household purchases. 79% of married women participate in decisions about their own health care, and 94% of married women make decisions about what food should be cooked each day. 2% of women do not participate in any of the four decisions; more than half of women report that they participate in all four decisions. 6

Attitudes toward Wife Beating Percent of women and men age 15-49 who agree that a husband is justified in beating his wife under certain circumstances The 2014 KDHS asked female and male respondents if they think a husband is justified in beating his wife under a series of circumstances: wife burns the food, wife argues with him, wife goes out without telling him, wife neglects the children, and wife refuses to have sex with him. Overall, men are less likely than women to agree that wife beating is justified for one specified reason. 42% of women and 36% of men agree that a husband is justified in beating his wife for at least one of these reasons: if she burns the food, argues with him, goes out without telling him, neglects the children, or refuses to have sex with him. Women are most likely to agree that wife beating is justified if a wife neglects the children (33%). Men are more likely to agree that wife beating is justified if the wife neglects the children (27%). 7

Nearly half of women have ever experienced physical violence since age 15, while 20% often or sometimes experienced physical violence in the past 12 months. In this context, physical violence means any type of physical violence, whether it is experienced at home or in another location, such as the workplace or school.
