During this EUI Inequality and Diversity Research Seminar, Professor Sander Wagner (University of Oxford) will present his research on the differences in the labour-market experience of mothers in France and Germany.
France and Germany, the two biggest EU economies generate vastly different labour-market experiences for new mothers. This talk explores these differences by summarising insights from a comparative project using administrative firm declaration data for the two countries. At a macro-level, the development of motherhood wage and employment penalties over time is presented in a comparative setup. At a micro-level individual and firm-level factors explaining penalties in the two countries are explored.
