abstract: 'Purpose - This chapter examines how gender, parenthood, and partner''s
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment are related to individual''s employment patterns, analyzing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
paid work at individual and household levels.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Methodology/approach - Analyses use individual- level data from the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Luxembourg Income Study (LIS) wave 5 for 19 countries, for adults aged
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
25- 45. We use logistic regression and a two-stage Heckman sample
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
selection correction procedure to estimate the effects of gender and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
parenthood on the probabilities of employment and full-time employment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Findings - The variation between mothers and childless women is larger
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
than that between childless men and childless women; differences in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
women''s employment patterns are driven by gendered parenthood,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
controlling for women''s human capital, partnered status and household
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
income. Fathers and mothers'' employment hours in the same household vary
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
cross-nationally.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mothers'' employment behaviors can identify important differences in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
strategies countries have pursued to balance work and family life.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Research implications - Important differences between childless women
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and mothers exist; employment analyses need to recognize the variation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in employment hours among women, and how women''s hours are related to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
partners'' hours. Further research should consider factors that shape
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment cross-nationally, as well as how these relate to differences
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in wages and occupational gender segregation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Practical implications - Employment choices of women and mothers must be
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
understood in terms of employment hours, not simply employment, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
within the context of partners'' employment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Originality/value of paper - Our chapter clarifies the wide dispersion
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of employment hours across countries - and how men''s and women''s
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment hours are linked and related to parenthood.'
