Research on female fertility welfare policy based on new population policy

Abstract

With the rapid development of Chinese society, the era of population aging has quietly arrived. To address the increasingly intensifying aging phenomenon, the Chinese government has implemented a series of new population policies. This article, based on the background of these new population policies, focuses on researching reproductive welfare policies for working women. Firstly, it analyzes the reasons for the current policy contradictions in China and suggests potential solutions. Secondly, it examines the problems and reasons for the current reproductive welfare policies in China from the perspectives of policy design, policy implementation, and policy environment. The study finds that China's existing reproductive welfare policies have not fully realized their intended policy effects, with numerous shortcomings in meeting the needs of working women. Lastly, the article analyzes the reproductive welfare policies proposed by developed countries to increase birth rates, summarizing the lessons these experiences offer for optimizing reproductive welfare policies in China.
