In the publication Quality of Employment in Canada, the Employment rate of mothers and fathers indicator is the percentage of mothers and fathers who are in employment.
Release date: 2022-05-30 - 3. Changes in parents' participation in domestic tasks and care for children from 1986 to 2015 ArchivedArticles and reports: 89-652-X2017001Description:
This article compares Canadians fathers' and mothers' participation in domestic tasks and care to children for the past 30 years. The results are based on data from the 2015 and 1986 General Social Survey on Time Use.
Release date: 2017-06-01 - Articles and reports: 11-626-X2016059Description:
This Economic Insights article examines the extent to which the lifetime income of children is correlated with the lifetime income of their fathers—a topic known as intergenerational income mobility. The analysis uses data from Statistics Canada’s Intergenerational Income Database, which links together children and their parents using tax files. The data provides information that permits the comparison of the income of children to those of parents at a similar stage of the lifecycle. A longer, more detailed study is also available.
Release date: 2016-06-17 - 5. Making fathers "count" ArchivedArticles and reports: 11-008-X201000211165Geography: CanadaDescription:
This article examines family status of fathers in Canada. The sociodemographic, family and conjugal characteristics of fathers are analyzed to illustrate the many faces of fathers. The data from this analysis are taken from two different cycles of the General Social Survey on the family: Cycle 10 from 1995 and Cycle 20 from 2006.
Release date: 2010-06-08 - 6. Fathers' use of paid parental leave ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X200810613211Geography: CanadaDescription:
In 2001, shareable parental leave benefits under the federal Parental Benefits Program increased from 10 to 35 weeks, and in 2006 Quebec introduced its Parental Insurance Program. These changes led to a significant increase in the number of fathers claiming paid parental leave benefits. Between 2000 and 2006, the proportion of fathers claiming parental benefits jumped from 3% to 20%. The most common reasons for fathers not claiming the benefits were family choice, difficulty taking time off work and financial issues.
Release date: 2008-09-24 - Articles and reports: 11-008-X20010046117Geography: CanadaDescription:
This paper examines the factors that contribute to frequent contact between adult children aged 25 to 54 and their parents.
Release date: 2002-03-11 - Articles and reports: 11F0019M2001158Geography: CanadaDescription:
Several recent papers have cited non-linearities in the relationship between incomes of parents and their children as evidence of important intergenerational credit constraints. This paper argues that any pattern in the conditional expectation function can be justified by a properly constructed story with credit constraints. This raises questions about the validity of the approach. Quantile regressions provide an alternative test. Using data from Canadian tax files, this paper finds results contrary to the credit constraints hypothesis; the non-linearities in the regression function are driven by the low-ability (unconstrained) sons rather than high-ability (presumably constrained) sons.
Release date: 2001-01-30 - 9. Intergenerational Influences on the Receipt of Unemployment Insurance in Canada and Sweden ArchivedArticles and reports: 11F0019M2001159Geography: CanadaDescription:
The objective of this paper is to examine the extent to which an individual's use of unemployment insurance (UI) as a young adult is influenced by past experience with the program, and by having had a parent who also collected UI. A major methodological challenge is to determine the extent to which the intergenerational correlation of UI status is "spurious" or causal. Both the time to a first UI claim and the entire sequence of claims over an extended period are examined using two alternative ways of controlling for unobserved heterogeneity. The analysis is based upon longitudinal data on a cohort of young Canadian and Swedish men. It is found that parental use of UI shortens the time to a first UI claim in Canada, but not in Sweden. Subsequent participation in the Canadian program is influenced by parental UI history. In Sweden individual learning through past participation in UI - not family background - is the dominant avenue determining repeated participation.
Release date: 2001-01-12 - 10. The Intergenerational Earnings and Income Mobility of Canadian Men: Evidence from Longitudinal Income Tax Data ArchivedArticles and reports: 11F0019M1998113Geography: CanadaDescription:
Our objective is to obtain an accurate estimate of the degree of intergenerational income mobility in Canada. We use income tax information on about 400,000 father-son pairs, and find intergenerational earnings elasticities to be about 0.2. Earnings mobility tends to be slightly greater than income mobility, but non-parametric techniques uncover significant non-linearities in both of these relationships. Intergenerational earnings mobility is greater at the lower end of the income distribution than at the upper end, and displays an inverted V-shape elsewhere. Intergenerational income mobility follows roughly the same pattern, but is much lower at the very top of the income distribution.
