abstract: 'BACKGROUND
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Couples tend to move house around first childbirth and often into
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
suburban or rural neighbourhoods, conforming to the normative belief
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
that children should grow up in a `proper family home.'' Such moves are
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
likely to increase housing costs and both partners might need to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
contribute to the household income. But the move might also necessitate
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
long commutes, inhibiting mothers'' labour force participation. If the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
family sphere is more salient for (prospective) mothers, they might
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
accept a remote location for its family-friendly environment but also
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
because they are not planning a rapid return to work.

OBJECTIVE
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This article analyses the influence of moving around first childbirth on
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the timing of mothers'' transitions into employment after childbirth.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
METHODS
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Event history methods are used on longitudinal data from the German
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Socio-Economic Panel 1999-2014 (N = 1334 first-time mothers).
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
RESULTS
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Limited evidence was found for the hypothesis that moving around first
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
childbirth accelerates mothers'' labour market (re-)entry: moving for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
homeownership increased the entry rate into full-time employment for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
mothers with low earnings potential. Strong evidence was found for the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
hypothesis that moving around first childbirth impedes mothers''
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment, particularly hampering entering part-time jobs, the domain
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of working mothers in Germany and other countries.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
CONCLUSION
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Moving for family nest-building seems to place mothers in unfavourable
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
structural positions for employment.

CONTRIBUTION

|
|
|
This article shows that social inequalities among women and within
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
households as well as the persistence of gendered life courses can be
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
reinforced through processes of family migration.'
