Características de las madres primerizas y de los padres primerizos en la España del siglo XXI
Este trabajo analiza la primofecundidad femenina y masculina en España entre 1999 y 2015. A través de la Encuesta de Población Activa en su versión panel, la probabilidad de tener un primer hijo se controla por edad y periodo de observación, y las variables independientes son el lugar de nacimiento, el nivel de instrucción y la relación con la actividad. Los resultados confirman el aplazamiento de la primera fecundidad entre los hombres y mujeres…
Female employment following childbirth: Differences between native and immigrant women in Switzerland
This paper analyses how native and immigrant women adapt their labour supply soon after childbirth in Switzerland. The analysis aims to examine whether the heterogeneity in post-birth female employment is explained by differences by women's origin with respect to skills composition, occupational attainment and household financial situation. Using 2010–2015 panel data from the Swiss Labour Force Survey, multinomial models focus on the transitions …
Vulnerability of Latin American Migrant Families Headed by Women in Spain During the Great Recession: A Couple-Level Analysis
One of the outcomes of the Great Recession has been the emerging pattern of households maintained exclusively by women. The analysis of intracouple characteristics is crucial in the context of job segregation by gender and by immigrant origin, such as in Spain. Using the panel version of the Spanish Labor Force Survey from 2008 to 2015, we analyze the transition of dual-earner couples to female-earner couples among Latin American and Spanish-born…
Differences in Labor Supply by Birthplace and Family Composition in Switzerland: The Role of Human Capital and Household Income
Households economically headed by women in times of expansion and crisis (1999-2012): The case of Latin American migrants in Spain
The arrival of flows of Latin-American females in Spain has been closely linked to the demand for domestic workers and carers. During the last period of economic expansion, a subsequent masculinization of these Latin American flows was seen, explaining the trend toward greater gender and occupational balance among these families. An economic recession followed, however, and unemployment impacted men more than it did women, as reflected in the ris…
Skill Composition and Occupational Incorporation of Early and Recent Immigrants in Switzerland: The case of Italians and Spaniards
Using the 1980 Census and 2010‐2011 Structural Survey, we compare the socio‐demographic profile and the occupational incorporation of Italian and Spanish immigrants arriving in Switzerland between 1976 and 1980 with those arriving during the second half of the 2000s. We find evidence that the traditional over‐representation of Italian and Spanish immigrants among the lower strata of the occupational hierarchy at the end of the guest worker period…
The labour trajectories of immigrant women in Spain: Are there signs of upward social mobility
In Spain, foreign-born women are disproportionately employed in housework or care work, and quantitative research has shown that female migrants are disadvantaged relative to male migrants in the occupational status of their first job in Spain. However, th
The impact of informal networks on labour mobility: Immigrants’ first job in Spain
This study analyses the transition from the last job in the country of origin to the first job in Spain for immigrants from non-developed countries according to their country of birth. We used the 2007 Spanish National Immigration Survey to build empirical models of multivariate regression analysis considering the main factors that may influence the probability of downward and upward labour mobility for men and women separately. The inexistence o…
Inmigrantes extranjeros en el mercado de trabajo español: Más Resilientes O Más Vulnerables Al Impacto De La Crisis
Utilizando datos de la Encuesta de Población Activa para el período entre el tercer trimestre de 2007, momento previo al inicio de la crisis económica, y el primero de 2014 (últimos datos disponibles en el momento de redactar este artículo), el objetivo de este artículo es analizar el impacto de la recesión económica sobre los niveles de empleo de la población española y extranjera de ambos sexos. Se pretende contestar a la pregunta de si los inm…
