Driving Factors for Participation in Domestic Work

Journal Title: International Journal of Research and Review - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 8

Abstract

Despite of increased labour force participation worldwide women are still performing most of the house work. This article focuses on factors which formulate the guidelines for division of domestic work between couples. Factors like educational status and employment derive husbands to participate less and wife to more. Husbands and wives having more available time perform more. Lower difference between salaries of partners results in equal division of domestic work. There are few less explored factors like psychological job involvement, marital control and occupational prestige which can contribute more to this unequal division. This article ends with portraying the actual challenges for equal division of domestic work.
