Women
might have a higher position at work, but at home their careers tend to give
way to their husband’s job, with women most likely to quit when both are
working long hours, according to a U.S.study.
Researcher
Youngjoo Cha, from Cornell University, found that working women with a husband
who worked 50 hours or more a week found themselves still doing most of the
housework and the care giving and were more likely to end up quitting their
jobs.
An
analysis of 8,484 professional workers and 17,648 nonprofessionals from
dual-earner (双职工) families showed that if women
had a husband who worked 60 hours or more per week it increased the woman’s
possibility of quitting her paid job by 42 percent.Cha
said the possibility of quitting increased to 51 percent for professional women
whose husbands work 60 hours or more per week, and for professional mothers the
possibility they would quit their jobs jumped 112 percent.
However,
it did not significantly affect a man’s possibility of quitting his job if his
wife worked 60 hours or more per week, according to the study published in the
American Sociological Review in April.For professional men,
both parents and non-parents, the effects of a wife working long hours were
negligible, according to the study.
“As
long work-hours introduce conflict between work and family into many
dual-earner families, couples often solve conflict in ways that prioritize
husbands’ careers,” Cha, who used data from the U.S.Census
Bureau, said in a statement.“This effect is
magnified (突出) among workers in professional
and managing occupations, where the criterion of overwork and the culture of
looking after children tend to be strongest.The
findings suggest that the popularity of overwork may lead many dual-earner
couples to return to a traditional family pattern — breadwinning men and
homemaking women.”
