FELMLEE, DIANE HELEN A Dynamic Analysis of Women's Employment Exits Demography 21,2 (May 1984): 171-183 Cohort(s): Young Women ID Number: 649 Publisher: Population Association of America Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. This research examines women's rates of leaving a job to become nonemployed (unemployed or out of the labor force) using a stochastic continuous time model. The data consist of employment histories of white women constructed from the NLS of Young Women (1968-1973). The results demonstrate the importance of examining the underlying processes in women's employment. Several differences are found between the determinants of employment exits and what might be expected from the cross sectional and panel literature on female labor force participation. The findings also provide evidence of the interdependence of fertility and employment, with young children increasing rates of employment exits and with high wages on a job decreasing rates of leaving a job because of a pregnancy. Finally, involuntary employment terminations are examined, and their transition rates are found to decrease with job wages and job tenure and to increase when a woman has children.
