The Influence of Fatherhood on Time Spent at Work: Job Characteristics as a Moderating Factor Presented: Boston MA, Population Association of America Annual Meeting, May 2014 Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: Population Association of America Keyword(s): Employment; Fatherhood; First Birth; Work Hours/Schedule Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. Does fatherhood affect men’s work hours? Men might work more hours when they have children in order to provide for the family. However, previous evidence is mixed. Using panel data, I summarize fathers’ employment hours before and after the first birth. I find no evidence that men’s work hours change with the birth of their first child, besides occurring during a period when employment hours are already increasing. |
