DESCRIPTION:Female labor force participation remains lower than male partic
 ipation in many settings. Can this be explained by households’ preference
  for men’s work\, and are these preferences malleable? We address this qu
 estion with a field experiment in a refugee camp setting in Bangladesh\, wh
 ere we randomly offer the same six-week job—under identical conditions—
 to either the husband or the wife in a household. We find that when women w
 ork\, their wellbeing improves but their husbands’ does not. When men wor
 k\, both their own and their wives’ wellbeing improve\, along with the he
 alth of the relationship and a greater self-reported sense of purpose for b
 oth partners. These findings help shed light on why households favor men wo
 rking over women\, which we document through an incentivized labor supply e
 xercise. However\, more than a year later\, households where women previous
 ly worked for us show significantly stronger preferences for female employm
 ent\, as men update their beliefs about the costs of women working. These r
 esults demonstrate that even brief exposure to women’s work can shift hou
 sehold preferences over female employment.\\n\\nContact: Timothée Demont:Â
