In the past two decades demand for educated workers has increased wages for skilled labor and induced more educated women to join the work force. Yet women are still more likely than men to voluntarily reduce workforce participation to attend to family responsibilities. Replacing them can be difficult and costly. We find that firms that are highly dependent on intellectual human capital are more likely than others to appear on "Best Companies" lists and to have female top executives. Firms on these lists often offer a family-friendly culture and benefits, which help their skilled working parents balance their responsibilities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
