Day Care in Europe and Mothers' Forgone Earnings.
Joshi, Heather; Davies, Hugh
International Labour Review, v131 n6 p561-79 1992
A comparison was made of patterns of employment of women in Europe with differing levels of child care provision and of earnings forgone over a lifetime by women bearing children to those of childless women. Working mothers in Great Britain and Germany were found to have greater earning losses than those in France and Sweden. (JOW)
