Human welfare largely depends upon earnings of individuals. Earnings reduce poverty, increase wealth and accelerate economic development. Therefore, it is appropriate to thoroughly investigate the factors responsible for earnings. Various factors of earnings have been described and discussed in previous research work. The objective of the current study is to examine the impact of some important institutional factors like job sector, harassment, status of the job, and job satisfaction on earnings of the working women in addition to the human capital variables using primary data directly collected from the respondents. Data were collected from 789 respondents in the year 2019 in ten randomly selected districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) province of Pakistan.
