This paper investigates the effect of the uncertainty from child birth on fertilty decision of Korean women. The differentials between public sector and private sector are used as an identification strategy. From the 10th KLIPS wave, the sectoral differentials of fertility decisions due to career disruption uncertainty turned out to be both statistically and economically significant. It is estimated that the mothers who worked in public sector in their 30s are more likely to end up with 0.67 more children.
