abstract: 'By leveraging the UK COVID-19 lockdown, this paper examines the impact
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of changes in paid working hours on gender inequality, specifically time
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
devoted to housework and childcare. We compare potential outcomes of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
similar couples who only differed in partners'' losing (or maintaining)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
paid hours during the period from January/February 2020 to April 2020.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
We draw on wave 9 of the UK Household Longitudinal Study and the first
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
wave of the Understanding Society COVID-19 study to evaluate competing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
hypotheses derived from time availability, relative resources and `doing
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
gender'' perspectives. Following studies on the gendered division of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
unpaid labour, we also account for heterogeneous implications by
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
analysing couples where partners'' relative contributions to household
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
labour income differ by gender. Our empirical results indicate that both
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
men and women who lost paid hours increased the time devoted to domestic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
chores, but gender inequality strikes back, especially after breadwinner
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
women lose paid hours. Overall, this paper provides fruitful insights
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
into how theories of gender inequality in the division of domestic tasks
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
could benefit from research on labour market shocks.'
