Fathers are more diligent workers

Compared to males with children to support, men who are childless are more likely to be unemployed. According to data from our statistical office, families with children also earn more money than childless couples. The higher tenacity and persistence of males who work more to provide for their families may be the cause of this.

According to Eurostat data, fathers appear to work more frequently than fathers without children. Men become more diligent when they have more children, as well. Only 70 percent of men without children who are working age (18 to 64) report having a job. Fathers with one child are more likely to be working (75 percent), while fathers with two children are more likely to be employed (83 percent).

A similar trend is observed for fathers with at least three children, where the percentage of working fathers reaches 81.4 percent.
