摘要:The employment behavior of mothers is strongly influenced by labor market
regulations and certain institutional arrangements, which both vary greatly
across European countries. Using the European Community Household Panel (ECHP)
1994-2001 for Denmark, Germany, Italy and the United Kingdom, which represent
four distinct 'institutional regimes', we estimate the short-run and long-term
effects of childbirth on married women's employment and working hours.
Estimation results show that these effects vary across the four countries in
accordance with prevailing institutional regulations.
