What Do Unions Do for Mothers? Paid Maternity Leave Use and the Multifaceted Roles of Labor Unions ILR Review 72,3 (May 2019): 662-692. Also: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/0019793918820032 Cohort(s): NLSY97 Publisher: Industrial and Labor Relations Review, Cornell University Keyword(s): Leave, Family or Maternity/Paternity; Maternal Employment; Unions; Wage Penalty/Career Penalty The authors present a four-fold conceptual framework of union roles--with a focus on availability, awareness, affordability, and assurance--for enhancing workers' paid maternity leave use. Using a panel data set of working women up to age 31 constructed from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997, the authors find union-represented workers to be at least 17% more likely to use paid maternity leave than are comparable non-union workers. Additional results suggest that availability, awareness, and affordability contribute to this differential leave-taking. The authors also document a post-leave wage growth penalty for paid leave-takers, but do not find a significant union–non-union difference. |
