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.'
