Abstract

We use longitudinal data from the Mexican Health and Aging Study to analyze the effect of having a parent in need of long-term care on labor supply of men and women aged 50-64 in Mexico. After accounting for both individual and time fixed effects, we find that parents' need of long-term care is associated with both a significant drop in the likelihood of working (by 2.42 percentage points), and a reduction in the number of hours worked (by 7.3%) among women who remain employed. In contrast, we find no effect on the labor supply of men. In a context of rapid population aging, the increase in the need of long-term care risks to hinder the efforts to reduce gender imbalances in the labor market.

当父母需要长期照顾时,谁工作更少?性别差异对墨西哥劳动力市场的影响。
我们使用墨西哥健康与老龄化研究的纵向数据来分析父母一方需要长期护理对墨西哥50-64岁男性和女性劳动力供应的影响。在考虑了个人和固定时间的影响后,我们发现,在仍有工作的女性中,父母对长期护理的需求与工作可能性的显著下降(下降2.42个百分点)和工作时间的减少(下降7.3%)有关。相比之下,我们没有发现对男性劳动力供给的影响。在人口迅速老龄化的背景下,长期护理需求的增加可能会阻碍减少劳动力市场性别不平衡的努力。
