Qualitative study of women in cambodia

ILO has released a small qualitative study of women who left their jobs in the garment industry during the economic crisis to work in the entertainment sector. The study seeks to better understand the work situation of these women, including their vulnerability to HIV/AIDS in order to identify avenues for practical assistance to reduce their HIV-related vulnerabilities. The study is based on qualitative interviews with 16 ex-factory workers who were laid off during the economic crisis, and who were working in the entertainment sector and engaging in commercial sex in Phnom Penh to supplement their income. The insights of the interviews were synthesized into case studies addressing common themes: the women's standard of living during childhood; their experiences in the garment sector, the entertainment sector, and as indirect sex workers; changes in their standard of living in the different occupations; notable impacts of the economic downturn; and condom use with clients and non-clients.
