The role of work–family conflict and enrichment in second-birth intentions: Comparing Finnish mothers and fathers
Findings on the relationship between work–family reconciliation and subsequent childbearing are inconsistent, and research on fathers’ experiences and positive work–family reconciliation is limited. This study addresses these gaps by investigating the extent to which first-time parents’ experiences of work-to-family and family-to-work conflict (WFC and FWC) and enrichment (WFE and FWE) are associated with their second-birth intentions and whether…
Work–family conflict intensifies after becoming a parent, but does it hinder second‐birth intentions in Finland
Finnish first‐time parents' support and psychological distress during the covid‐19 pandemic: A longitudinal study
Rational or emotional decisions? Parents’ nonstandard work hours and the justifications for using informal childcare
This study examined whether the number of weekly childcare arrangements for under-school-aged children is associated with parental nonstandard hours (e.g. evenings, nights, or irregular schedules) and the reasons and justifications parents working nonstandard hours give for using informal care arrangements. Using cross-sectional survey data of 359 Finnish parents with children aged 0–6 years, we found that nonstandard work hours, compared with st…
Mothers' return-to-work reasons and work-family conflict: Does a Partner Involved in Childcare Make a Difference
Facilitating mothers’ work–family reconciliation upon their return to work can be considered a viable means of enhancing women’s overall employment participation. This study examined return-to-work reasons among mothers with a one-year-old child, how these reasons are related to mothers’ background characteristics, work-to-family conflict (WFC) and family-to-work conflict (FWC) and whether having a partner home caring for the child protects again…
Displaying morally responsible motherhood: Lone mothers accounting for work during non-standard hours
This study examined how lone mothers rationalise their work during non-standard hours (e.g., evenings and weekends), which they perceive as problematic in terms of child wellbeing, and thereby as violating the culturally shared moral order of ‘good’ motherhood. The data comprise interviews with 16 Finnish lone mothers, analysed as accounts, with a special focus on their linguistic features. The mothers displayed morally responsible motherhood thr…
Mothers’ non-standard working schedules and family time: Enhancing regularity and togetherness
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to investigate Finnish working mothers’ experiences of the effects of non-standard working schedules (NSWS) on family time in two family forms, coupled and lone-parent families. Furthermore the aim is to find out what meanings mothers with NSWS attached to family time paying particular attention to the circumstances in which mothers experienced NSWS positively. Design/methodology/approach – Thematic analysis…
Mothers’ non-standard working and childcare-related challenges: A comparison between lone and coupled mothers
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to particularly focus on lone-mother families, comparing the childcare-related challenges experienced by working lone mothers and coupled mothers in three European countries in the context of a 24/7 economy and non-standard working hours (e.g. evening, night and weekend work). Design/methodology/approach – This study utilises survey data from Finnish, Dutch and British working mothers ( n =1,106) collected a…
