本文建立并估计了一个老年父母照顾和工作的动态离散选择模型,以分析赡养老人如何影响妇女当前和未来的劳动力参与和工资。该模型结合了父母的健康变化,人力资本积累和工作机会的可用性。估计数表明,妇女在工作一段时间后重返工作岗位或增加工作时间的可能性很低。我用估计模型来模拟更长的无薪工作假比目前提供的家庭和医疗休假法,带薪休假和照顾者津贴的休假,就业和福利的影响。
This article formulates and estimates a dynamic discrete choice model of elder parent care and work to analyze how caregiving affects a woman's current and future labor force participation and wages. The model incorporates parental health changes, human capital accumulation, and job offer availability. The estimates indicate that women face low probabilities of returning to work or increasing work hours after a caregiving spell. I use the estimated model to simulate the caregiving, employment, and welfare effects of a longer unpaid work leave than currently available under the Family and Medical Leave Act, a paid leave, and a caregiver allowance.
