【地点】明主734会议室
【主讲】文秀泽
【主题】Part-time Work, Job Satisfaction and Well-being: Evidence from a Developing OECD Country (Montero, Rodrigo, and T. Rau., Journal of Development Studies, 2015)
【点评】王湘红 中国人民大学经济学院教授

【摘要】We estimate the effects of part-time work on job and life satisfaction using new data for Chile. While part-time work is being promoted to increase female labour participation in many countries, there are concerns about its quality and the overall effect on well-being of such policies. We estimate models for job and life satisfaction addressing for endogeneity and selectivity bias. We found that part-time work has a negative effect on job satisfaction and well-being for men; however, when looking at just women, the negative effect is reversed. This should be considered when designing public policies oriented at increasing female labour participation through part-time work.
 
     劳动经济学研讨会继承之前的劳动与发展经济学研讨会，关注劳动经济学热点问题和前沿文献。劳动经济学研讨会的学术活动有两种形式：前沿文献选读和同行学术交流。前沿文献选读由劳动经济学教师团队选择本领域顶尖杂志的前沿文献，采用学生宣讲、老师点评的方式加强人才培养、促进本领域内师生的广泛交流。同行学术交流将邀请相关领域知名学者或顶尖高校毕业的博士就已形成的高水平工作论文进行深入讨论。两类活动将视需要而定频次。欢迎相关领域老师和同学关注并参加！如有意作为点评老师或宣讲学生参加前沿文献选读活动，可以联系经济学院宋扬老师（ys337@ruc.edu.cn）。
