Educational attainment, gender, and the change in access to schedule flexibility in Europe and the United States
Labor unions, work contexts, and workers' access to work-family policies
Unions serve as primary labor market institutions that improve employees' working conditions, yet existing literature offers mixed results of their influence on workers' access to work-family policies. This may be partially due to the extant literature having not considered possible variation across work contexts. In this study, I ask whether union coverage can increase workers' access to work-family policies and examine how family-friendly work …
National work–family policies and the occupational segregation of women and mothers in European countries, 1999–2016
Some scholars hypothesize that although work–family policies help incorporate women into the labour market, they do so by integrating women, and mothers specifically, into female-dominated occupations. Some suggest that although these policies are ‘good’ for lower educated women, they harm higher educated women by concentrating them in female-dominated professions. We revisit this debate using the highest quality data brought to bear on this ques…
Does Overwork Attenuate the Motherhood Earnings Penalty among Full-Time Workers
This study examines whether working long hours alters the motherhood earnings penalty in the context of the United States. The author uses data from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (1979-2014) to model the annual earnings penalty mothers incur per child in the United States. The results support that working long hours (50+ hours per week) reduces the negative effect of motherhood on earnings for white women. Once we control for human ca…
Workplace computerization and inequality in schedule control
Manager gender and changing attitudes toward schedule control: Evidence from the Work, Family, and Health Study
This study explores gender differences in managers’ responses to a workplace initiative designed to reduce managers’ concerns about schedule control in a large IT company. Drawing on a manager-level dataset collected from a group-randomized trial, results show that the workplace initiative significantly reduced concerns managers had about schedule control. In models stratified by gender, the initiative’s effect was statistically significant among…
A Stalled Revolution? Change in Women's Labor Force Participation during Child‐Rearing Years, Europe and the United States 1996–2016
While women's labor force participation rates (LFPRs) in the United States stalled over the last quarter‐century, European countries exhibited a variety of trajectories. We draw on demographic and gender theories of women's life course to understand changes in women's LFPR during their prime child‐rearing years. We build expectations about how aggregate trends may be driven by shifts in the prevalence of key demographic events such as child‐reari…
National Family Policies and Mothers’ Employment: How Earnings Inequality Shapes Policy Effects across and within Countries
Although researchers generally agree that national family policies play a role in shaping mothers’ employment, there is considerable debate about whether, how, and why policy effects vary across country contexts and within countries by mothers’ educational attainment. We hypothesize that family policies interact with national levels of earnings inequality to differentially affect mothers’ employment outcomes by educational attainment. We develop …
