| Tiivistelmä: | Based on a sample of over 450 manufacturing firms in Germany, France, the United Kingdom (U.K.), and the United States (U.S), this study explores the determinants and consequences of family-friendly workplace practices (FFWP). There is found a positive correlation btw. firm productivity and FFWP. However, this correlation disappears once a measure of the quality of management practices is controlled for. Furthermore, it is found that firms with a higher proportion of more skilled workers and female managers, and well-managed firms, tend to implement more FFWP. On the contrary, a firm's environment does not have a significant impact on the FFWP provided. |
