讲座内容

We conduct a nationwide correspondence experiment to assess the effect of the Double Reduction Policy on employment discrimination towards women in China. Using 23,078 observations collected through the experiment, we confirm that the implementation of the Double Reduction Policy led to an overall 6.1% decrease in total interview callbacks of women with children. This finding survives a battery of robustness checks. We also find that this effect is more pronounced for mothers who have two children, who apply for positions in foreign companies, and who are in small cities. To explore the mechanism behind the decrease, we further investigate the attitude of HR and employers towards women's role and responsibility in a family before and after the policy via a survey. Surprisingly, we find that HR and employers hold more unfavorable opinions after the policy such as women should take more family responsibilities and women are less efficient than men in the workplace. The policy also significantly decreased the activity of private tutoring institutions, leaving mothers shoulder heavier family responsibilities and thus have less time for their work. Our findings point to the necessity of considering the side effect of the Double Reduction Policy in the labor market.

中文摘要:我们进行一项全国范围的通讯实验以评估双减政策对中国女性就业的影响。使用通讯实验收集的23,078个观察样本,我们发现双减政策导致女性总体面试邀请下降 5.9%。这一结果通过了一系列稳健性检验。为了探索这一变化背后的机制,我们进一步考察人力资源部门和雇主在政策实施前后关于女性家庭角色和责任的态度变化。我们发现人力资源部门和雇主对女性的观点没有以前友好。我们的研究结果说明考虑双减政策在劳动力市场的非预期效应很有必要。
