摘要：there is increasing evidence from developed countries showing that the covid-19 recession disproportionately impacted the female labor force, causing a “she-cession”. this paper investigates the magnitude of the “she-cession” in china. using a unique three-wave employee tracking survey of china in 2020, we portrayed the temporal impact of the covid-19 outbreak on working women during and after the covid-19 pandemic. our results show a widening gender gap in unemployment, hours worked, and monthly salary throughout 2020. marital status and children exacerbated the gender gaps; as expected, working mothers with a child aged 0-6 experienced the most adverse labor market outcomes. moreover, working mothers with a child aged 0-6 displayed the worst mental health status compared to other groups throughout 2020.
