Abstract

The study provides estimates of the size of the fatherhood premium for the Czech Republic in the years 2006‒2017, using data from the EU SILC survey. In the years 2006‒2009, the fatherhood premium in the Czech Republic does not manifest itself if explanatory variables include the marriage premium and the partner's labour market participation. The fatherhood premium only starts to express itself in 2010 and the following years, when it reaches values from 11% to 15% as a consequence of a decision of families with high-income fathers to have a third child in the years after 2010.
