| dc.description.abstract | The unpredictability of climate and natural disasters is a concern in Bangladesh because this forces laborers in Bangladesh to leave their birthplace. This thesis is about measuring the effect of temperature, which is a proxy of climate and natural disasters, on labor mobility in Bangladesh by using Labor Force Survey (LFS) data from 2013 and mean temperature data from 2005-2015. The empirical analysis has used the econometric method and has found a positive influence of temperature on labor mobility. This thesis also has suggested policies to tackle the labor mobility crisis due to temperature-induced climate unpredictability and natural disasters. | en_US |
