Financial Stimuli by Labour Market Entry • Change of tax payment (social and health insurance + income tax) • Costs of childcare (scope of services vs. price) • Costs of commuting (?) • Deciding about work – optimizing process how many options can they choose from? • Loss of parental allowances (?) • Reduction of other state social support allowances (?) • Decreased allowances of assistance in material need (?) • Financial stimuli are not the only factor in the family decision making
AETR – Financial Stimuli Indicator • If I decide to start a job for the gross wage of CZK 20,000 (HP1) and the net monetary income for the household is CZK 6,000 (ΔČPP), I will be subjected to effective taxation of 70 % • Is the net monetary income sufficient to compensate for my starting a job?

Model Households • A household with children, one is 2 years old • The woman is deciding whether to enter the labour market • By entering the labour market, she can expect an income thatwill depend, among others, on: • Scope of employment • Abilities (education) • Regional labour market • QUESTION: What effective taxation will the household be subjected to if its earned income is x % of the income median (CZK 20,000)

Financial Impact - State • A woman on parental leave from the perspective of the state: • Saved costs for nurseries (carried by the establisher) • Lower tax revenues – the model does not include social and health insurance paid by employers (34 %) • Duty to pay the health insurance for the woman on parental leave
