abstract: 'Important gender differences still persist in many labor market
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
outcomes. This paper argues that the design of parental leave policies
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
can play an important role in shaping these differences. A summary of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the literature reveals that extended maternity leave mandates increase
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
female labor force participation at the cost of lower wages, less
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
presence of women in high-profile occupations and a more traditional
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
division of tasks within the family. Periods of leave exclusively
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
reserved for fathers are proposed as a policy instrument to increase
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
men''s participation in family tasks and facilitate women''s progress in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the professional career. The paper concludes with a revision of these
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
policies and their implications for gender equality.'
