About
Provides detailed information regarding the age-wise distribution of the female labour force worldwide. Analysis of this data reveals that the global growth of female labour supply has been accompanied by a distinct increase in the average age of women participating in the workforce. Current trends show that the number of women under 25 in the global labour force is slightly lower than it was fifteen years ago, even though the total global female labour force expanded by nearly 50% during that same period. The data supports detailed analysis and case studies intended to help understand the underlying global factors influencing these trends and allows for validation and visualisation of country-specific statistics. A key motive is to understand age-wise projections and identify areas of low female labour force participation to inform women empowerment initiatives.

Distribution
The data is structured as a tabular dataset, contained within a CSV file named
female-labor-force-by-age.csv. The file size is 459.22 kB and comprises a total of 9 columns. The structure holds 7585 total values across its rows, representing statistics for various countries and age groups.Usage
- Performing detailed economic analysis and generating case studies regarding global employment trends.
- Visualising country-wise statistics related to female labour force participation.
- Developing models and projections regarding the age distribution of working women.
- Understanding the underlying factors contributing to shifts in the global female labour supply.

Coverage
The geographic scope spans the globe, providing country-level data identified by both name and code. The demographic scope is focused specifically on the female labour force, segmented into six distinct 10-year age bands, ranging from 15-24 up to 65 and older. While the data structure includes a Year column, details on the specific time range are not explicitly available.
