摘要：

This study investigates the impact of women's employment in the manufacturing sector and in the services sector on the well-being of children aged 0 to 5 years in Vietnam. Our findings show that women's employment decreases the quantity of time that mothers spend with their children. At the same time, women's employment increases their income. The magnitude of the impact of women's employment in the services sector on child nutrition is greater than that of women's employment in manufacturing. This may be because of the higher income of mothers working in the service sector when compared to those working in manufacturing.
