abstract: 'Unpaid care work, including child care, elder care, and housework, is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
unremunerated work essential to human survival and flourishing.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Worldwide, women disproportionally carry out this work, impacting upon
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
their ability to engage in other activities, such as education,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment, or leisure. Despite a growing number of businesses engaging
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in ``gendered CSR,{''''} in the form of women''s empowerment projects,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
attention to unpaid care work remains little discussed in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
literature, despite its importance to sustainable development. Applying
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Diane Elson''s feminist economic framework for alleviating unpaid care
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
work inequality to a case study of gendered CSR in Ghana, I find that at
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
present unpaid care work is (a) unrecognised in business'' CSR, (b) may
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
be both reduced or exacerbated by CSR efforts, and (c) remains
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
conceptualised as relevant only to the private sphere, therefore,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
missing a unique opportunity for business to contribute to gender
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
equality and sustainable development. Connecting unpaid care work and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
business responsibility contributes to a more expansive understanding of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
what CSR may be.'
