这篇论文考察了与围绕母亲越来越多的劳动力参与而进行的政策辩论相关的经济问题。我们回顾了英国女性劳动力市场参与度的主要变化。妇女参与率增加的主要来源是母亲在分娩间隔时间逐渐缩短后重返工作岗位。对这一行为的主要影响因素、第一胎期间的失业时间以及相关的实证工作也进行了综述。这些变化引起了与产假和育儿假、托儿服务、雇主的家庭友好型工作安排和儿童福利有关的问题。本文就如何以与家庭生活相适应的形式促进性别平等提出了一些建议。版权所有，牛津大学出版社1999年。
This paper examines the economic issues relevant to policy debates that surround the increasing labour force participation of mothers. We review the main changes in women's labour market participation in Britain. The main source of increase in women's participation rates has come from mothers returning to work after childbirth after progressively shorter intervals. The major influences on this behaviour and the length of time spent out of work over the first childbirth and the associated empirical work are also reviewed. These changes have raised issues relevant to maternity and parental leave, childcare provision, employers' family-friendly working arrangements and children's welfare. The paper makes some recommendations about how to further gender equity in a form compatible with family life. Copyright 1999 by Oxford University Press.
