This paper uses the case of Turkey to examine the thesis that employment in manufacturing industry is feminised with the shift from import-substituting industrialisation to exportled growth in the context of structural adjustment policies. Focusing on large-scale manufacturing industry, we find that in both public and private sectors and under both industrialisation strategies the gender composition of manufacturing employment is explained by technological characteristics and the degree of export-orientation of establishments. Hence, the shift to export-led growth has been achieved without an accompanying or subsequent feminisation of employment
