Abstract
This research aims to determine and examine the influence of economic growth, education, wages and Labor Force Participation Rate (LFPR) and unemployment on labor supply according to gender using panel data in 34 provinces in Indonesia during 2017-2023. Economic growth has no influence on labor supply and wages for males and female groups. Meanwhile, education has a significant influence on labor supply and wages in both groups. Unemployment and LFPR have a significant positive influence on labor supply for both male and female. Meanwhile, wages have a negative influence on labor supply in these two groups. LFPR is negatively influenced by education level, while wages do not have a significant influence on LFPR for both male and female. Furthermore, this variable has a significant negative influence on unemployment for both groups. Unemployment is affected by LFPR negatively and significantly in both male and female groups. However, education has a positive influence on unemployment in both groups. Meanwhile, wages have no influence at all on unemployment for either the males or female group. However, economic growth has a real negative influence on unemployment among these groups. Furthermore, basically gender has an influence on labor supply in terms of education level, wage, LFPR and unemployment.
