Abstract

Having children can slow down career progression significantly for women, but not for men. LSE Professor Camille Landais studied this difference in outcomes and labelled it the “child penalty”. He sat down for a chat with Anna Bevan (LSE Audio & Film) for the LSE IQ podcast. They discussed the dynamics behind the child penalty, what policymakers can do, whether outcomes are different for homosexual couples and how Portugal managed to have high female employment rates.
