Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Mothers who return to work early after having their first child are found to have a higher probability of being employed full-time in the long-term (10 years later), but not in the short-term (3 years later). It is found that the gender of the youngest child has no impact on the labour market activities (labour market participation, hours worked or wage rate) of Japanese mothers. In contrast, in Thailand the gender of the youngest child has no impact on the labour market activities and that impact varies with the age of the child. For Japanese couples, an increase in the future probability of looking after their parents or parents in law leads to an increase proportion of couples born after 1946 choosing to have no children. Once a couple chooses to have at least one child, this probability has no impact. For the cohort born before 1946, there appears to be no impact.
