abstract: 'Using data from social security records and an event study approach, we
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
estimate the child penalty in Spain, looking at disparities for women
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and men across different labor outcomes following the birth of the first
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
child. Our findings show that, the year after the first child is born,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mothers'' annual earnings drop by 11\% while men''s remain unchanged. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gender gap is even larger 10 years after birth. Our estimate of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
long-run child penalty in earnings equals 28\%, similar to those found
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
for Denmark, Finland, Sweden or the USA. In addition, we identify
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
channels that may drive this phenomenon, including reductions in working
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
days and shifts to part-time or fixed-term contracts. Finally, we
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
provide evidence of heterogeneous responses in earnings and labor market
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
participation by educational level: college-educated women react to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
motherhood more on the intensive margin (working part-time), while
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
non-college-educated women are relatively more likely to do so in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
extensive margin (working fewer days).'
