We document a substantial glass ceiling in the Swedish labor market: women constitute less than 20% within the top 1% of the earnings distribution. Using a structural micro-founded model of a dual earner household with learning-on-the-job, we link this to the child penalty. While on parental leave, women accumulate less human capital on the job, get promoted to a lesser extent, and hence are less
