Abstract
The paper analyzes the impact of life course events, parenthood and marriage, on paid and unpaid working activity of employed and married (or cohabiting) women and their partners in Italy. To this purpose Istat Multipurpose Panel Survey in the years 2003 and 2007 is used. To correct misspecification effects we use a Difference-in-Differences specification of simultaneous equations of market and domestic work supply. Estimation results show as the negative effect of transition to parenthood on female paid work supply is stronger than the positive effect of wage.
