The developed world’s longest-serving female head of government, Angela Merkel, has done little to improve the lot of Germany’s working women.
Although female labor-force participation in Germany is higher than the average for industrialized nations, a significant part of the women in the country work part time -- a level that has barely budged on Merkel’s watch. The share of women working part time has gone from 38.8% in 2005, the year Merkel got elected, to 36.3% in 2019, according to OECD data. In Sweden that ratio was 17.3% while in France it stood at 20.4%.
