DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:<p><em><strong>The Parenthood Gap: Firms and Earnings Inequality After Kids
 </strong></em></p><p>Abstract:</p><p style="text-align: justify;">This pape
 r studies the dynamics of career paths around parenthood, capturing worker 
 advancement within firms and across firms of differing pay. Using a novel l
 inkage between administrative data on U.S. workers' fertility and labor-mar
 ket histories, we show that the parental earnings gap is partly explained b
 y mothers transitioning to lower-paying firms. This firm downgrading is dri
 ven by parents who take an extended absence from the labor force. Mothers m
 ove to jobs that allow shorter hours, reduced commutes, and more remote wor
 k, suggesting greater flexibility, but also to firms offering lower levels 
 of employer-based health insurance. Overall, firm characteristics account f
 or up to one-quarter of the decrease in earnings among employed mothers.</p
