Les scores se concentrent dans le haut de l’échelle ; la position au sein du catalogue est donc souvent plus parlante que le chiffre seul.
Transferability / replicability1/3
The core finding — that regulating hours without addressing hiring/firing incentives can backfire — is a transferable policy lesson corroborated by peer-reviewed economic analysis, though the practice itself is not being replicated as a model.
Impact on gender equality0/1
Female labour-force participation remained around 14.9% in the year after the law and, per World Bank data, fell further from 19% (2016) to 13.4% (2024), indicating no positive impact on gender equality and likely harm to the targeted group.
Effectiveness0/1
The reform reduced actual working hours by only about 34 minutes per week on average while reducing employers' willingness to hire or retain eligible women, per the peer-reviewed study — it did not achieve its protective aim.
Efficiency0/1
The law imposed compliance costs on employers that led to reduced hiring of the protected group rather than efficient achievement of its stated goal.
Evaluated outcomes1/1
A peer-reviewed causal study (Chen & Ebadi, Journal of Development Economics) and a contemporaneous HRW labour-market investigation both independently evaluated outcomes and found adverse effects.
Sustainability0/1
There is no evidence of a follow-up reform to correct the documented backfire; this is a cautionary case, not a programme with a positive sustainability trajectory.
Achievement / evidence0/1
No positive achievement toward gender equality is documented; the evidence base instead documents a negative outcome for the targeted group.
Gender-mainstreaming embedding0/1
The law targeted women specifically but its documented effect ran counter to gender-equality goals, so it is scored low despite its stated intent.
Curator validation1/1
Findings were cross-verified between an HRW field investigation, official Iranian labour statistics, World Bank Open Data and a peer-reviewed journal article.
