This paper analyzes the effects of job displacement on fertility using
Finnish longitudinal register data. We focus on couples where one
spouse has lost a job due to a plant closure and follow them for several
years before and following the job loss. The results show that
female job loss decreases fertility. For every 100 displaced females,
there are three fewer children born. Male job loss has no impact on
fertility despite resulting in a stronger decrease in family income
than female job loss. This indicates that the income effect is not the
mechanism through which job displacement influences fertility.
