description In 2017, the leave period to which all female workers are entitled to around childbirth increased from 14 to 18 weeks in Colombia. This article analyzes the impact of the reform that extended the maternity leave period on mothers' labor market outcomes after childbirth. To identify the causal impact of the reform, we use a difference-in-difference design to compare labor market outcomes of mothers who gave birth before the change in the maternity leave legislation to mothers who gave birth after. We use administrative data from the Social Security System to estimate the intent-to-treat effect of the reform on mothers' employment continuity, earnings, and the probability of working in a female-dominated (or pink-collar) sector after childbirth. Results suggest that the extension increases the probability that eligible mothers had left the formal labor market 2, 3, 4, and 5 months after the maternity leave by approximately 2 percentage points but has no effect on their probability of leaving the pre-birth employer for another job within formality. Results also suggest the reform increases the probability that eligible mothers work in a pink-collar sector 2, 3, 4, and 5 months after the maternity leave. Furthermore, we find that the extension decreases eligible mothers' post-birth earnings.

Este artículo analiza el impacto de la reforma que extendió el período de licencia de maternidad en algunos resultados del mercado laboral de las madres después del parto. Para identificar el impacto causal de la reforma, utilizamos un diseño de diferencias-en-diferencias para comparar los resultados del mercado laboral de las madres que dieron a luz antes del cambio en la legislación con los resultados del mercado laboral de las madres que dieron a luz después. Usamos los datos administrativos de la Planilla de Liquidación de Aportes (PILA) para estimar el efecto de la reforma sobre: (i) la continuidad laboral de las madres, (ii) los ingresos laborales y (iii) la probabilidad de que trabajen en un sector predominantemente femenino (o de cuello-rosado) después del parto. Los resultados sugieren que la extensión aumenta la probabilidad de que las madres elegibles hayan abandonado el mercado laboral formal 2, 3, 4 y hasta 5 meses después de la licencia de maternidad en aproximadamente 2 puntos porcentuales, pero no tiene ningún efecto sobre la probabilidad de dejar al empleador prenatal por otro trabajo dentro de la formalidad. Los resultados también sugieren que la reforma aumenta la probabilidad de que las madres elegibles trabajen en un sector de cuello-rosado 2, 3, 4 y hasta 5 meses después de la licencia. Además, encontramos que la extensión reduce los ingresos posparto de las madres elegibles.Magíster en EconomíaMaestría37 páginasapplication/pdfengUniversidad de los AndesMaestría en EconomíaFacultad de EconomíaWhat to expect when you are expecting : maternity leave and female labor market outcomesTrabajo de grado - Maestríainfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesishttp://purl.org/coar/version/c_970fb48d4fbd8a85Texthttp://purl.org/redcol/resource_type/TMLicencias por maternidadInequidad de géneroTrabajo de la mujerEconomía201512048PublicationTEXT24339.pdf.txt24339.pdf.txtExtracted texttext/plain91614https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/b89324ad-cef3-4667-a76a-fd77c29a5807/download4e46837151809b5763390b0a26267f52MD54THUMBNAIL24339.pdf.jpg24339.pdf.jpgIM Thumbnailimage/jpeg18400https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/85008485-dee0-40df-8c3d-d9f326174f7a/download018af53446ff0579df28a5abf69b3325MD55ORIGINAL24339.pdfapplication/pdf1828517https://repositorio.uniandes.edu.co/bitstreams/83d50efa-2923-4e6c-b1de-8414dca34b65/downloadda4266950aaf96289a606c80b55af15bMD511992/53385oai:repositorio.uniandes.edu.co:1992/533852023-10-10 19:54:21.296http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/open.accesshttps://repositorio.uniandes.edu.coRepositorio institucional Sénecaadminrepositorio@uniandes.edu.co
