Primary Outcomes (End Points) We have three primary outcomes: 1) firms’ decision to hire women, 2) firms’ experience in hiring women, and 3) willingness to comply with social norms. The first outcome, firms’ decision to hire women, comes from the hypothetical choice method. It is the reported probability for hiring women to fill the ten sawing positions at the hypothetical Company A. The second outcome, firms’ experience in hiring women, comes from the survey. We construct the following variables to capture this outcome: 1. If a firm has hired women in the past at all by occupation types 2. Share of current female employees by occupation types The third outcome, willingness to comply with social norms, comes from the marble sorting game. This is the lowest willing rate for the helper reported by each top manager. The greater the lowest willing rate is, the more willing he is to comply with the social norm of physical segregation of the sexes. We have three primary outcomes: 1) firms’ decision to hire women, 2) firms’ experience in hiring women, 3) top managers' willingness to comply with social norms for themselves, and 4) top managers' willingness to comply with social norms for their workers.

This is the lowest willing rate for the helper reported by each top manager. The greater the lowest willing rate is, the more willing he is to comply with the social norm of physical segregation of the sexes. The fourth outcome, top managers' willingness to comply with social norms for their workers, comes from hypothetical questions after the marble sorting game. We ask top managers to report willingness to comply with social norms for their workers under different scenarios which vary by a) the level of visibility of workers' behaviors while working with the male and female helpers, and b) who requires the workers to work with the helpers (top manager or research team). This measure is meant to understand if top managers have different standards and concerns for social norm compliance for their workers who come from very different socio-economic backgrounds.
