The factors affecting the probability of mothers reducing their working day or leaving their job after having a child are studied through a descriptive analysis, as well as by estimating a multinomial logic model. The results obtained indicate the relevance of the following aspects: the mother's income level, her level of education, the number of children and the fact of having the daily help of grandparents for childcare. The survey data show that the main reason mothers decide to reduce their working day or leave their job is to care for their children. These results are relevant for the design of childcare policies and work-life balance policies with the aim of avoiding gender inequalities in the future Conciliació laboral Igualtat d'oportunitats Drets de les dones Maternitat Estudis de gènere Industrial conciliation Equal opportunity Women's rights Motherhood Gender studies Labor market decisions after motherhood: The case of Barcelona
