abstract: 'Infant mortality is an important indicator of a nation''s overall health
and well-being because of its association with education, availability
and accessibility of health services, and income inequality. In this
paper, we examine the effect of job-protected paid parental leave on
infant and post-neonatal mortality rates in 19 OECD countries from 1960
to 2012. We utilize a generalized least squares model controlling for a
host of variables traditionally examined in studies of infant mortality
rates, as well as year fixed effects, country fixed effects, and country
time trends. We find a statistically significant association between
job-protected paid parental leave and a reduction in both infant
mortality rates and post-neonatal mortality rates. The findings are
particularly relevant for policymakers in the United States, the only
industrialized democracy in the world that does not provide
job-protected paid parental leave to working women and men.'
