Abstract: This paper focuses on child renunciations factors, investigating the answers of nearly 1000 employees to a 2003 IPSOS-Chronopost survey. Numerous variables are taken into account simultaneously, evaluating their ?caeteris paribus? influence through logistic models estimations. In a nutshell, people who frequently declare child renunciations or delayed conception moments because of working-life organisation, or feel children as a brake for career would be young people, women, without children. The higher the professional class, the more employees declare being concerned with these difficulties. Nevertheless, a finance constraint seems to hold : the higher their income, the less employees declare child renunciations. A better working-schedules visibility and a chosen working-time would moderate these difficulties. Parents declaring « renunciations » would more often face bad-adaptations of holiday-school rhythms with their life. JEL Codes : D10, J13, J22.
