摘要：
This paper examines the impact of working at home on the wages of men and women using cross-sectional and panel data from Australia. The results show that working at home helps narrow the gender wage gap. A concerning finding is that fathers who work at home earn significantly less than other men who work at home. Policy implications are discussed.
