  • The impact of paid family leave on employers

    Ann P Bartel, Ann Bartel et al.ARTICLECommunity Work & Family2025Citada por: 3Referências: 16

    To study the impacts of New York's 2018 Paid Family Leave (PFL) policy on employer outcomes, we designed and fielded a survey of small firms in New York and a control state, Pennsylvania, which does not have a PFL policy. We match each NY firm to a comparable PA firm and use difference-in-differences models to analyze within-match-pair changes in outcomes. Contrary to common concerns about the burdens of PFL on employers, we find no evidence that…

  • Breastfeeding, schooling, and income

    Open AccessRandall Lutter, Christopher J Ruhm et al.ARTICLEMaternal and Child Nutrition2018

    Recent research has highlighted associations of breastfeeding with IQ, schooling, and income, but uncertainty about such links remains. The Indonesian Family Life Survey, representative of 83% of the Indonesian population, provides data on breastfeeding, parents' years of schooling, wealth, and other family characteristics in 1993-1994, as well as schooling and income in 2014-2015 for 5,421 children of those families. Using linear regressions and…

  • Time for Children

    Open AccessLiana Fox, Wen‐jui Han et al.ARTICLEDemography2013Citada por: 22Referências: 19

    Using data from the 1967–2009 years of the March Current Population Surveys (CPS), we examine two important resources for children’s well-being: time and money. We document trends in parental employment, from the perspective of children, and show what underlies these trends. We find that increases in family work hours mainly reflect movements into jobs by parents—particularly mothers, who in prior decades would have remained at home. This increas…

  • Parental leave policies and parents' employment and leave‐taking

    Open AccessWen‐jui Han, Christopher J Ruhm et al.ARTICLEJournal of Policy Analysis and…2008Citada por: 36Referências: 8

    We describe trends in maternal employment and leave-taking after birth of a newborn and analyze the extent to which these behaviors are influenced by parental leave policies. Data are from the June Current Population Survey (CPS) Fertility Supplements, merged with other months of the CPS, and cover the period 1987 to 1994. This time span is one during which parental leave legislation expanded at both the state and federal level. We also provide t…
