挪威扩大育儿假计划,现在赋予就业父亲广泛的权利,这是在工作生活发生巨大变化的时期发生的。福利国家的平等政治明确致力于通过允许母亲和父亲在生孩子时留在家里休假的权利,使生育在工作生活中更加公开。然而,让工作生活适应家庭生活与工作生活的新趋势形成鲜明对比,一些工作场所变得越来越诱人和贪婪。在本文中,我们研究了标准化和灵活性方面的两种不同类型的休假,并询问考虑到后现代工作生活的核心特征(例如个人主义和选择、灵活的工作时间和无限的工作)哪种类型最成功。调查结果显示,大多数父亲都使用强制休假,而灵活休假的使用则因考虑到其对男性就业的影响而受到抑制。
The expansion of the parental leave scheme in Norway, which now grants extensive rights to employed fathers, has occured in a period of great changes in working life. The equality politics of the welfare state have been explicitly focussed on bringing reproduction more into the open in working life by allowing mothers and fathers the right to stay at home on leave when they have children. To have working life adapt to family life is, however, in contrast with the new trends in working life whereby some workplaces are becoming more and more seductive and greedy. In this article we examine two different types of leave with regard to standardisation and flexibilisation, and ask what type is most successful considering central characteristics of late-modern working life such as individualism and choice, flexible working hours and boundless jobs. Findings show that the majority of fathers use the compulsory leave while the uptake of the flexible leave is inhibited by considerations of its impact on men's employment.
