Özet
The motherhood wage penalty refers to the wage differentials between mothers and women without children that cannot be attributed to differences in personal and job characteristics. The magnitude of the adverse impact of motherhood on women’s wages depends on the institutional labor market framework of work-family balance and the cultural perception of maternal employment. The motherhood wage penalty is a potentially significant challenge for working mothers in the Turkish labor market, characterized by a low female labor force participation rate and a high gender wage gap. This study examines the motherhood wage penalty in Turkey on different wage levels by employing Buchinsky’s (1998) quantile regression method with sample selection correction for the years 2018, 2019, and 2020 by taking into account education, experience, work intensity, and the relative wage level of the residing region. The study results showed that regular and casual wage earner mothers are subjected to different levels of motherhood wage penalties depending on their place in the wage distribution.
