A method for producing a water-absorbent resin, characterized in that a precursor of the water-absorbent resin obtained by polymerizing a water-soluble ethylenically unsaturated monomer is subjected to a post-crosslinking reaction in the presence of a compound having plural hydrazide groups. The water-absorbent resin obtained by the method for producing a water-absorbent resin of the present invention is excellent in properties such as water-retention capacity, water-absorption capacity under load, and gel strength, and also gives consideration to safety of the water-absorbent resin by reducing water-soluble substance. Therefore, the water-absorbent resin of the present invention can be suitably used, for example, in hygienic materials such as disposable diaper, incontinence pad and sanitary napkin, in particular, in disposable diaper.
