我们使用10年的加州行政数据与回归扭结设计，以估计的因果关系的影响，在第一个国家级的带薪家庭假计划的妇女与收入接近最高福利门槛。我们没有发现任何证据表明，更高的每周福利金额（WBA）增加休假时间或导致不利的未来劳动力市场的结果，这一组。相比之下，我们的文件表明，WBA的上升导致返回休假前公司的可能性增加（以任何就业为条件），并随后提出带薪家庭假申请。
We use 10 years of California administrative data with a regression kink design to estimate the causal impacts of benefits in the first state-level paid family leave program for women with earnings near the maximum benefit threshold. We find no evidence that a higher weekly benefit amount (WBA) increases leave duration or leads to adverse future labor market outcomes for this group. In contrast, we document that a rise in the WBA leads to an increased likelihood of returning to the pre-leave firm (conditional on any employment) and of making a subsequent paid family leave claim.
