“…The role of women in the family economy is undeniable. When women have higher "power" in the family in making decisions, the results in family welfare will be very significant (Setyari, 2013;Setyari et al, 2018). However, culture is often a barrier to the development of women's potential in their role in the family and national economy.…”

The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the digitization process in service systems and manufacturing industries in most countries, although at varying speeds. This was triggered by social distancing requirements and other COVID-19-related regulations imposed by governments around the world, including Indonesia. Digital technology is widely regarded as a promising means of promoting gender equality in education, the labor market, access to finance, and health care. This study is aimed at examining whether there are significant differences between female and male workers in the labor market and the digital access they have during the COVID-19 pandemic. The research design used is quantitative. The objects in this study are female and male workers in the province of Bali. In general, the results here confirm indications of increasing gender inequality in Bali. Gender issues are often ignored in gender-related research because technology is believed to be gender-neutral. Male workers have higher productivity than female workers in the labor market. The gender approach argues that technology is not neutral, but dependent on culture. Technology reflects the society that creates it. Access to (and effective use of) technology is affected by a spectrum of exclusions that intersect including gender, ethnicity, age, social class, geography, and disability. The power relations that exist in society determine the enjoyment of the benefits of ICTs, therefore they are not gender-neutral.

“…(Johnson et al, 2016) considers a broader set of assets, moving beyond physical assets to include social networks to examine their impacts on household outcomes and women's well-being. A wife who has more assets in the marriage may have more power to "force" her choices in decision-making by controlling the husband's assets brought into the marriage (Setyari et al, 2018).…”

Many studies confirm the importance of the role of women in theeffectiveness of government programs, especially the programs aimedat improving family welfare. This study aims to examine the effect ofthe government program of direct cash transfers (BLT) on the humancapital of children in households headed by women in Indonesia.Data for the study was obtained from IFLS (wave 5) and analyzedwith multiple linear regression. The analysis results show that thereis a negative effect of BLT on the education of children. Previousstudies state this is due to the changing behavior of the recipienthouseholds or the spillover effects on the non-recipient households.This research proposes a different reason, such as social discriminationagainst households headed by women. The solid patriarchal culturein Indonesia often ignores female-headed households, so the numberof households receiving social protection programs is relatively verylimited.How to Cite:Setyari, N. P.

“…Many studies have included measures that would be considered indicators of women's power, such as ownership of assets (Beegle, Frankenberg, & Thomas, 2001;Quisumbing & Maluccio, 1994;Doss 2006;Friedemann-Sa´nchez, 2006;Setyari, Widanta, & Purbadharmaja, 2018), which provide empirical evidence of the influence on resource allocation household. However, this framework has not been explored much to see the impact of resource allocation within the household on household decisions, especially on working women's bargaining power regarding decisions about their children's education level.…”

Thus, increasing productivity and creating access to employment opportunities. So that income will increase along with the increase in education. The most strategic target in developing quality human resources is children. There is an empirical study of the effect on household resource allocation where household decisions are influenced by the power that individuals have in the household. The distribution of power within the household can affect the level of spending on education for each child. This study aims to determine the impact of working mothers on their children's human capital in Indonesia and the differences in the influence of relative education and the relative income of working mother on children's human capital in Indonesia. The analysis technique used is the Ordinary Least Square (OLS) and Chow-test to determine the difference in the effect of the relative education and relative income of working mothers on their children's human capital in Indonesia. Using IFLS5 data, we found out that the impact of working mothers has a significant effect on children's human capital in Indonesia and there is a significant difference where the income of working mothers has a greater influence on children's human capital in Indonesia.
