Gulzige organisaties en de verdeling van betaalde en onbetaalde arbeid binnen huishoudens
Firm’s time greediness and the division of labour in the household . Although the body of literature documenting the division of labour between partners is large and continuously expanding, little is known about how demands and expectations from the workplace affect the division of labour between partners and how spouses use strategies to manage, or ‘govern’, the conflicting demands of work and family. Using data on 242 Dutch female employees, th…
The Relation Between Market Forces and Employee Motivation: Consequences of the Introduction of Market Forces in the Dutch Childcare Sector
The Dutch childcare sector has undergone a transition from a welfare sector into a market sector. The final step in this transition process was taken with the introduction of a new Dutch Childcare Act on 1 January 2005. In discussions about the introduction of market forces, the possible effects on employees are usually not taken into consideration. This is remarkable given that it is generally assumed that employee motivation in the public secto…
Shadow of the Future, Risk Aversion, and Employee Cooperation
In this paper, we examine whether and how the shadow of the future and risk aversion affect employee cooperation with the employer. We distinguish, formalize and test two conflicting arguments as used in the literature, which we denote the reward argument and the relation argument. Whereas the reward argument predicts that risk aversion affects cooperation in a negative way, the relation argument predicts a positive effect of risk aversion on coo…
The effect of hospital bed reduction on the use of beds: A comparative study of 10 European countries
Street-level corruption in industrialized and developing countries
This paper offers a cross-country analysis of street-level corruption. In line with earlier studies on general corruption (where data did not allow a distinction between street-level and high-level corruption, e.g. Treisman 2000 and La Porta et al . 1999), nine hypotheses based on general economic theories of law enforcement are tested using data from the International Crime Victims Survey (ICVS) held in forty countries (N = 27,456). The analyses…
Changes in Female Labour Supply in the Netherlands 1989–1998: The Case of Married and Cohabiting Women
The macroeconomics of fertility in small open economies: A test of the Becker-Barro model for The Netherlands and New Zealand
Towards an Equal Division of Paid and Unpaid Work: The Case of the Netherlands
Both the Netherlands and other European countries are involved in the transition from a breadwinner society towards a more individual-oriented society. What is unique in the Dutch case is the strong emphasis on the equal sharing of time, between paid and unpaid work as well as between women and men. Despite the preferences among citizens for a more equal sharing of paid and unpaid work, in practice it appears that general participation in paid la…
The Division of Child Care among Mothers, Fathers, and Nonparental Care Providers in Dutch Two-Parent Families
Liset Van Dijk, Jacques J. Siegers, The Division of Child Care among Mothers, Fathers, and Nonparental Care Providers in Dutch Two-Parent Families, Journal of Marriage and Family, Vol. 58, No. 4 (Nov., 1996), pp. 1018-1028
Career Interruptions and Women's Life-time Earnings
Day-Care supply by Dutch municipalities
The labour supply of married and cohabiting women in the Netherlands, 1981?1989
Married Couples and Their Labour Market Status
In this article we raise the question whether there is a relationship between the labour-market status of partners in the Netherlands in 1985–6. Possible explanations for such a relationship are represented by three hypotheses, namely the shared restrictions hypothesis, the spouse selection hypothesis, and the influence hypothesis. The explanations mentioned are tested for four types of labour-market status, namely employed, unemployed, disabled,…
The decision to retire: The case of Dutch men aged 50–64
The effect of unemployment, temporary withdrawals and part-time work on workers' wage rates
In this article we discuss the effects of interruptions of labour market participation and part-time work on men's and women's gross wage rates. Workers who interrupt their labour market careers suffer from depreciation of their stock of human capital. Compared to workers who do not interrupt their careers they are even more disadvantaged because every year they do not participate, they miss experience. However, if during this period for which no…
