摘要

一些高收入国家的总生育率低至一个孩子。利用西班牙的行政数据，我们发现临时合同与较低的首次生育率相关。此外，有孩子的妇女不太可能从事中间休息时间较长的分班工作。我们建立了一个生命周期模型，在这个模型中，妇女决定劳动力供给和生育。我们的研究表明，消除双重工作或分班工作的改革会提高女性的劳动参与率，缩小母亲与非母亲之间的就业差距，并提高职业女性的生育率。这些改革加上育儿补贴，使已婚妇女的生育率提高到 1.8 个孩子。

LABOR MARKET INSTITUTIONS AND FERTILITY

Some high-income countries have total fertility rates as low as one child. Using Spanish administrative data, we document that temporary contracts correlate with lower first birth rates. Also, women with children are less likely to work split-shift jobs with long breaks in the middle of the day. We build a life-cycle model where women decide on labor supply and fertility. We show that reforms eliminating duality or split-shift jobs raise women's labor participation, narrow the employment gap between mothers and nonmothers, and boost fertility for working women. These reforms, together with childcare subsidies, increase married women's fertility to 1.8 children.
