A NOTE ON FEMALE LABOUR SUPPLY
提出一个女性劳动供给的类型学框架，将女性分为单身女性、有孩子的已婚女性、目标导向的额外工作者和解放女性等群体，并分析她们在无法自由选择工作时间时的典型劳动供给态度。
In recent years female participation rates in the labour force have increased considerably in most developed countries. This is partly due to generally changed attitudes among women, partly to changing proportions among women with different attitudes towards labour force participation. The article focuses on this latter idea and tries to present a typology of different groups and their ‘typical’ labour supply attitudes. Using the traditional model of choice between (paid) working time and ‘leisure’ (including unpaid work) some typical attitudes are illustrated for single women (primary workers), married women with children, the ‘target-oriented’ additional worker, and the ‘emancipated’ woman. Certain conclusions are drawn under the additional assumptions that working hours cannot be freely chosen and that (desired) part-time work or overtime may not be available.
