Abstract

This is an empirical study that analyzes factors affecting the work-family compatibility of female wage workers with underage children. The analysis was conducted with 1,113 women from the 7th wave of the Korean Longitudinal Survey of Women & Families by Korean Women's Development Institute. As for research methods, multiple regression analysis was used in order to analyze the effects of 'social support(home support, maternity protection support, childcare and education services)', 'job characteristics', 'socio-demographic variables' and 'husband characteristics' on 'work-family compatibility and conflict'. As a result, it was analyzed that the husband's support for work life, gender inequality at work and women's educational training were the factors that strengthen work-family compatibility. It was also analyzed that gender inequality, use of childcare and education facility, number of underage children, age of husband, husband's satisfaction with caring support and husband's support for work life were the factors that cause conflict between work and family. Thus, if the policy of strengthening the work-family compatibility is a long-term policy, it appears that it is necessary to supplement and strengthen policies that can reduce conflict factors in the short term. It is hoped that the results of the study will be used as objective and academic data to strengthen the maternity protection and work-family compatibility of female workers with underage children.

본 연구는 미성년 자녀를 둔 임금근로 여성의 일과 가정의 양립에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하는 실증 연구이다. 분석 자료는 한국여성정책연구원의 여성가족패널조사(Korean Longitudinal Survey of Women & Families) 7차 웨이브의 1,113명을 대상으로 하였다. 연구방법으로는 '사회적 지원(가정 내 지원, 모성보호 지원, 보육 및 교육서비스)'과 '일자리 특성', '인구사회학적 변인', '남편의 특성'이 '일과 가정의 양립' 및 '갈등'에 미치는 영향을 분석하고자 다중회귀분석을 활용하였다. 분석결과 남편의 직장생활지지, 기업 내의 성차별, 여성의 교육연수는 일과 가정의 양립을 강화하는 요인으로 분석되었다. 그리고 기업 내의 성차별, 보육 및 교육시설 이용도, 미성년 자녀수, 남편 연령, 남편의 돌봄 도움만족도, 남편의 직장생활지지는 일과 가정의 갈등 요인으로 분석되었다. 따라서 일과 가정의 양립을 강화하는 방향이 장기적인 정책 방향이라면, 단기적으로는 갈등요인을 감소시킬 수 있는 정책의 보완 및 강화가 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과가 미성년 자녀를 둔 임금근로 여성들의 모성보호와 일과 가정의 양립을 강화시키기 위한 객관적이고 학술적인 자료로 활용되기를 기대한다.
