The women are sent as tourists with promises of employment as nannies, tutors or baby-sitters, but they often end up working in the sex industry.”[12] Women’s economic opportunities"Gender roles in the economy changed during the Soviet period and continue to change in independence."[16] While the Uzbek state has programs in place to help increase economic opportunities for women, there are persistent problems. For example, the labor market is sex-segregated, and women are usually paid lower wages.[17] "Unskilled personnel in the non-production sector are comprised virtually entirely of women.”[3][4] Women also cannot be used for night time or overtime work.[3] As of 2003 there was no known law against sexual harassment.[18] Mothers with disabled children or many children can retire at 50—up to five years earlier than the stipulated retirement age (55).[3] Women’s legal rights and government representationAs of 2004 Uzbekistan’s election law requires political parties to nominate at least 30 percent female candidates for the parliament. However, underrepresentation of women is endemic at all levels of government.[4] Uzbekistan has universal suffrage;[3] however, "according to data from surveys conducted by the Public Opinion Centre, 64% of urban and 50% of rural women consider that men have greater opportunities for implementing their rights in the political sphere".[3] Forced marriage and bride kidnappingForced marriage through bride kidnapping occurs in parts of the country, especially Karakalpakstan. [19] Bride kidnappings are believed to be tied to economic instability. Whereas weddings can be prohibitively expensive, kidnappings avoid both the cost of the ceremony and any bride price.[20] Some scholars report that less desirable males with inferior educations or drug or alcohol problems are more likely to kidnap their brides.[21]References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://data.worldbank.org/indicator/SL.TLF.ACTI.FE.ZS/countries|title=Labor force participation rate, female (% of female population ages 15-64) (modeled ILO estimate) - Data|website=data.worldbank.org}} {{commons category|Women of Uzbekistan}}{{Asia topic|Women in}}{{Uzbekistan topics}}2. ^{{cite web |title=Domestic Violence in Uzbekistan |url=http://www.theadvocatesforhumanrights.org/uploads/uzbekreport.pdf |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20131021231253/http://www.theadvocatesforhumanrights.org/uploads/uzbekreport.pdf |archivedate=2013-10-21}} 3. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 {{cite web|url=https://www.un.org/womenwatch/daw/cedaw/ |title=Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women |publisher=Un.org |date= |accessdate=2015-05-22}} 4. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web|url=http://www.bayefsky.com |title=The United Nations Human Rights Treaties |publisher=Bayefsky.com |date= |accessdate=2015-05-22}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://unstats.un.org/unsd/default.htm |title=United Nations Statistics Division |publisher=Unstats.un.org |date= |accessdate=2015-05-22}} 6. ^{{cite web |title=Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights |url=http://www2.ohchr.org/english/bodies/cescr/ |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110521075829/http://www2.ohchr.org/english/bodies/cescr/ |archivedate=2011-05-21}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-17612550|title=BBC News - Uzbekistan's policy of secretly sterilising women|work=BBC News|accessdate=20 January 2015}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01fjx63|title=BBC Radio 4 - Crossing Continents, Forced Sterilisation in Uzbekistan|work=BBC|accessdate=20 January 2015}} 9. ^{{cite web|url=http://iwpr.net/report-news/birth-control-decree-uzbekistan|title=Birth Control by Decree in Uzbekistan|work=Institute for War and Peace Reporting|accessdate=20 January 2015}} 10. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p00qbnlq/Assignment_Forcible_Sterilisation_In_Uzbekistan/|title=BBC World Service - Assignment , Forcible Sterilisation In Uzbekistan|work=BBC|accessdate=20 January 2015}} 11. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.iwpr.net/?apc_state=henfrca352298&l=tg&s=f&o=352298 |title=Institute for War and Peace Reporting | Giving Voice, Driving Change |publisher=Iwpr.net |date= |accessdate=2015-05-22}} 12. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://iwraw.igc.org/publications/countries/uzbekistan.htm |title=IWRAW Home Page |publisher=Iwraw.igc.org |date= |accessdate=2015-05-22}} 13. ^UN, CEDAW: (Concluding Observations, 2006) 5 14. ^UNFPA, State of the World Population 2006:( A Passage to Hope; Women and International Migration, 2006) 49 15. ^{{cite web |title=International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights |url=http://www2.ohchr.org/english/law/ccpr.htm |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110430013855/http://www2.ohchr.org/english/law/ccpr.htm |archivedate=2011-04-30}} 16. ^Uzbeks.
