The Motherhood Penalty vs. the Fatherhood Bonus New York Times, September 6, 2014. Also: https://www.nytimes.com/2014/09/07/upshot/a-child-helps-your-career-if-youre-a-man.html Cohort(s): NLSY79 Publisher: New York Times Keyword(s): Discrimination; Fatherhood; Gender Differences; Motherhood; Mothers, Income; Wage Penalty/Career Penalty Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. One of the worst career moves a woman can make is to have children. Mothers are less likely to be hired for jobs, to be perceived as competent at work or to be paid as much as their male colleagues with the same qualifications.For men, meanwhile, having a child is good for their careers. They are more likely to be hired than childless men, and tend to be paid more after they have children. These differences persist even after controlling for factors like the hours people work, the types of jobs they choose and the salaries of their spouses. So the disparity is not because mothers actually become less productive employees and fathers work harder when they become parents -- but because employers expect them to.
