This study analyzes the effects of women's labour force participation and work-family reconciliation support on life-cycle fertility in Korea. The analysis is based on the longitudinal data from Korean Labour and Income Panel Study (KLIPS), which include the available information on life-cycle fertility and employment history. Employing a dynamic model of fertility, we estimated the life-cycle fertility of all the 15-49 years old women considered in this study by using a duration model. The major results of this study were as follows: First, women's labour force participation had a negative effect on the first birth, second birth, and all births (transition to births starting at different parities). Women's employment tended to lengthen the interval between births. Second, the availability of maternal leave had a positive effect on the first birth and all births for working women. Providing maternal leave to working women decreased the opportunity cost of childbearing and in turn, reduced the interbirth interval of women. However, the availability of parental leave had no significant effect on the births of working women. Third, the financial support for childcare had a positive effect on the first birth and all births. The economic support for childcare led to the reduction in the interbirth interval of women by increasing the probability of births. The use of a childcare center for the first child, which substitutes for the time that women needed to take care of their children, classified as time-intensive consumption goods, did not have any effect on the second birth. Fourth, the part-time employment of women had a positive effect on the second birth. A flexible working time schedule tended to decrease the interval between the first and the second births.

정부는 2001년 산전후휴가 기간 확대와 산전후휴가와 육아휴직 기간 동안의 보조금 지급을 골자로 하는 모성보호법 개정을 단행하였다. 본 연구는 삼중차감기법을 통해 가임기 여성을 위한 이러한 추가 혜택이 가임기 여성의 고용과 시간당 임금에 미친 영향을 분석한다. 젊은 남성, 나이든 여성, 나이든 남성을 통제집단으로 간주하였을 때, 모성보호법 개정으로 인한 가임기 여성의 고용과 시간당 임금 변화는 없었다. 이는 모성보호법 개정이 가임기 여성의 노동공급과 기업의 가임기 여성에 대한 노동수요에 어떠한 변화도 초래하지 않았음을 의미한다.

This study investigates the influence of family-friendly workplace policies and organizational culture on the willingness of married female managers to have a child. The analysis includes 353 married female managers from the $6^{th}$ survey of the 2016 Korean Women Manager Panel. Factors that are found to influence the respondents include age, education, number of children, job position, promotional goals, accessibility to family leave, accessibility to shorter work hours during the child-rearing period, and organizational culture. Female managers who can easily use family leave or who have shorter work hours during the child-rearing period show a higher willingness to have a child. By contrast, those whose work places employ a fair and horizontal organizational culture are less willing to have a child. The introduction of family-friendly policies are not found to be statistically significant determinants of female managers' willingness to have a child. We find that influencing family-friendly policies between the first and second childbirth differ. The accessibility of family-friendly policies that affect the willingness of female managers to have a child when they have no child include parental leave, employer-supported childcare, and childcare subsidies. For improving their willingness to have a second child, accessibility to both family leave and shorter work hours during the child-rearing period are effective. In conclusion, the government should strongly consider micro-personal factors, such as family-friendly workplace practices and organizational culture, when executing policies to reverse the current trend of low fertility.

본 연구는 기혼여성의 자녀가치관과 추가출산의향의 관계에서 출산장려정책(보육료지원, 육아휴직제도)의 조절효과를 분석하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 이를 위하여 "2015년 전국 출산력 및 가족 보건복지 실태조사"자료 중 총 2,143명의 자료를 선택하여 위계적 다중회귀분석과 조절회귀 분석방법을 적용하였다. 배경변수(교육수준, 소득, 연령, 기존 자녀 수)를 통제한 후, 위계적 다중회귀분석을 실시한 결과, 이상적 자녀수, 도구적 가치관과 정서적 가치관의 순으로 추가출산의향에 양(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 그리고 '육아휴직'은 추가출산의향에 유의한 영향이 없는 반면에, '보육료 지원'은 음(-)의 영향이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 '보육료 지원'만이 '도구적, 정서적 가치관'과 추가출산의향의향의 관계에서 조절효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 결과는 효율적인 출산율 제고를 위해서는 무엇보다 자녀가치관을 높이기 위한 출산장려 문화정책이 필요하며, 아울러 추가출산 가능성이 높은 여성들을 대상으로 자녀수 등을 고려한 맞춤형 지원이 필요함을 시사한다.

The purpose of this research was, first, to classify work-life satisfaction among married wage workers aged 20-59 years into several distinct types based on two dimensions of work and life, using data from the 20th(2017) wave of the Korean Labor & Income Panel Study. Second, the study aimed to assess the differences in socio-demographic characteristics (sex, age, educational level, average monthly income), and workplace-related variables (weekly working hours, full-time employment, job stability, business type, family-friendly leave policies) by work-life satisfaction type. Accordingly, four types of work-life satisfaction were identified: work-life satisfaction, work-life dissatisfaction, work satisfaction, and life satisfaction. There was a significant difference in the type of work-life satisfaction among married waged workers based on sex, age, educational level, and average monthly income. Additionally, there was a significant difference in the type of work-life satisfaction for all workplace-related variables, namely, weekly working hours, full-time employment, job stability, business type, and family-friendly leave policies. In particular, proportionally higher values of work-life satisfaction were evident among the workers in companies with family-friendly leave policies such as paid leave, menstrual leave, maternity leave, childcare leave, and family events leave, whereas there was a high rate of work-life dissatisfaction among the workers in companies without family-friendly leave policies.

This study is to examine current child care support policies and their limitations and to make some suggestions by means of statistics and previous literature. Major findings are as follows: First, As the women have younger children, the effect is more negative. Second, a maternity leave of Korea is 90 days, which is below ILO standard. Moreover, it is not well supported by the companies they work for. Third, the increasing number of men has spent a paternity leave since the pertinent law was enforced in 2001. The rate of spending the leave, however, is not as high as expected, because it has not yet been decided whether the leave would be paid or not. Lastly, the number of the employer-supporting child care center is rather few due to the legal standard of the facility and the expense that a company should cover. Only 46.5% of the companies that has been appointed to obligatorily establish the center now operate the facility. Therefore, child care support policies should be reformed or improved to help reduce married women's child care burden obviously hindering women from being employed, and this will consequently promote their economic activities. It is also urgently required to expand the application of the parental leave in terms of both object and scope. It is important that employers and employees get ready to compromise each other on the wage issue during the leave. In addition, the flexibility in period and form of the parental leave and the connection of working places with local community for better child care service must be taken into consideration.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to develop a machine learning model to predict the subsequent childbirth intention of married women with one child, aiming to address the low birth rate problem in Korea, This will be achieved by utilizing data from the 2021 Family and Childbirth Survey conducted by the Korea Institute for Health and Social Affairs. Methods: A prediction model was developed using the Random Forest algorithm to predict the subsequent childbirth intention of married women with one child. This algorithm was chosen for its advantages in prediction and generalization, and its performance was evaluated. Results: The significance of variables influencing the Random Forest prediction model was confirmed. With the exception of the presence or absence of leave before and after childbirth, most variables contributed to predicting the intention to have subsequent childbirth. Notably, variables such as the mother's age, number of children planned at the time of marriage, average monthly household income, spouse's share of childcare burden, mother's weekday housework hours, and presence or absence of spouse's maternity leave emerged as relatively important predictors of subsequent childbirth intention.

이 연구의 목적은 기혼 여성의 결혼 후 첫 취업 중단 발생 경향을 자녀 출산 및 가족친화제도에 따른 영향에 주목하여 분석함으로써, 출산과 가족친화제도가 일 가족 양립에 미치는 영향을 파악하는 것이다. 이를 알아보기 위하여 한국노동패널에서 최근 5년 이내(2002~2006) 결혼한 20~30대 취업 여성 194명을 추출하였으며, 가족친화제도 문항이 포함되기 시작한 제4차(2001)부터 제 9차(2006)까지의 데이터를 활용하여 생존분석하였다. 분석 결과 기혼 취업 여성이 첫 경력 단절을 경험하기까지 걸리는 시간은 평균 29.60개월로, 결혼 후 2년 반 이내에 절반 가까이 직장 생활을 그만두었다. 취업 여성의 결혼 후 취업 중단 요인에는 자녀 출산이 가장 유의한 변수로 나타났으며, 근로소득이 증가할수록, 근로시간이 감소할수록, 직장 내 가족친화제도를 더 많이 이용할수록 취업상태를 지속하는 경향을 보였다. 기혼 취업 여성의 취업 중단은 특히 첫 자녀 출산을 2~3개월 앞둔 시기에 주로 나타났는데, 출산휴가 및 육아휴직과 같은 가족친화제도를 이용할 수 있는 경우 이러한 취업 중단이 발생할 가능성은 유의하게 낮아지는 것으로 나타났다.
