Семинар «Childcare Reform: Effects on Earnings and Employment among Native Swedish and Immigrant Mothers»

1 марта 2016 г. состоялся совместный семинар Лаборатории исследований рынка труда (ЛИРТ) и Центра трудовых исследований (ЦеТИ), на котором был представлен доклад «Childcare Reform: Effects on Earnings and Employment among Native Swedish and Immigrant Mothers».

Докладчик — Елена Котырло, профессор кафедры региональной экономики и географии РУДН.

The paper studies earnings and labor force participation of native Swedes and recent immigrants in Sweden in response to the childcare reforms of 2001 and 2002 using a difference-in-differences approach and register-based data for the period of 1995-2009. Immigrant and native Swedish mothers are distinguished in order to study if increased accessibility to childcare might be particularly beneficial for groups facing obstacles in entering the labor market. The results show that the reforms had a positive effect on earnings and labor force participation among native mothers with preschool children. The group of immigrant mothers studied did not experience any gain in labor market outcomes as a response to the reform.
