我们使用德国社会经济小组(SOEP 1985-2014)30年的数据来研究父亲身份和就业时间之间的联系。通过检查如何实际的时间,首选的时间,以及实际和首选的时间之间的对应关系在父亲的变化,我们澄清了父亲的喜好和他们遇到的劳动力市场结构之间的相互作用。我们发现,1960年或更早出生的男性更喜欢(并且能够)在他们成为父亲时略微增加工作时间。相比之下,1960年以后出生的男性倾向于选择并实现工作时间的略微减少。然而,父亲实际工作时间和喜欢的工作时间的变化不是个人决定:它们反映了其伴侣参与有酬工作的情况。年长群体中的男性只有在其伴侣失业时才大幅增加工作时间。年轻男性只有在伴侣全职工作时才会大幅减少工作时间。因此,父亲工作时间的变化更有利于妻子就业,但父亲工作时间减少的幅度仍然很小。虽然我们的研究结果表明,德国在有偿工作分工方面正在朝着公平的性别安排取得进展,但这一进展仍然缓慢。
We examine the connection between fatherhood and employment hours using 30 years of data from the German Socio-Economic Panel (SOEP 1985–2014). By inspecting how actual hours, preferred hours, and the correspondence between actual and preferred hours change during fatherhood, we clarify the interplay between fathers’ preferences and the labour market structures they encounter. We find that men born in 1960 or earlier prefer to (and are able to) increase their work hours slightly when they are fathers. Men born after 1960, in contrast, tend to prefer and achieve a slight reduction in work hours. Changes in fathers’ actual and preferred work hours, however, are not an individual decision: they reflect the paid work involvement of their partners. Men in the older cohort only increase their hours significantly when their partner is not employed. Men in the younger cohort only reduce their hours significantly when their partner works full-time. Changes in fathers' work hours thus have become more supportive of wives' employment, but the size of fathers' work hour reductions remains substantively small. While our results suggest Germany is making progress towards equitable gender arrangements in the division of paid work, this progress remains slow.
