Household Childcare Choices and Women's Work Behavior in Russia

Lokshin, Michael

Journal of Human Resources, v39 n4 p1094 Fall 2004

A model of a household demand for childcare, mothers' labor force participation and mothers' working hours in Russia is presented. The simulations presented show that family allowance transfers intended as a means of reducing poverty do not have a significant effect on a household's choice of childcare arrangements.
