Le congé parental en Belgique
Abstract
RESUME :Les congés parentaux sont en Europe principalement pris par les mères, renforçant ainsi les inégalités entre femmes et hommes sur le marché du travail. La littérature économique reflète bien le débat qui peut s’engager à ce sujet, elle est présentée dans cet article et sert de contexte à l’analyse du système belge. Le système de congé parental belge a pour qualités d’être individualisé, les droits aux congés ne sont pas transférables entre les parents, et sa durée est courte. Le dispositif pourrait être amélioré par l’instauration d’une compensation proportionnelle au salaire. Une offre publique de garde d’enfants suffisante et de qualité reste cependant la politique primordiale à développer puisqu’elle n’entraîne pas d’effets négatifs sur l’emploi féminin.Download Info
