The report was conducted in 2016, the year the decades-old family planning policy was scrapped.

Also, some companies will not provide training for employees who fall pregnant, or promote them. Some companies even force pregnant workers to resign, the report said.

It noted that about 51 percent of urban females with two children would be willing to give up their careers and focus on their families.

The figure was 17 percentage points higher than for women with one child who held the same opinion.

In addition to the low number of opportunities available to working mothers, many are worried about their ability to strike a work-family balance, the report said.
