abstract: 'This study examines the impacts of unpaid family care on labor supply
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and earnings of women and men near retirement age in urban China. Using
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the 2011 China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ordinary least squares (OLS) and instrumental variable approaches, it
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
finds that grandchild care is negatively associated with both women''s
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and men''s labor force participation, while there are no effects for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
eldercare. For women caregivers, caring for grandchildren substantially
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
lowers paid labor hours compared to noncaregivers. No significant
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
relationships are found between eldercare and paid labor hours of women
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
workers. For men workers, neither grandchild care nor eldercare is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
significantly associated with labor hours. The study also finds no
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
statistically significant relationships between grandchild care and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
labor earnings for either women or men. Eldercare, however, is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
positively associated with the earnings of men workers.'
