abstract: 'Providing care for older people who have support needs is mainly a
|
|
|
|
familial and female responsibility in Chile. Despite Chile''s development
|
|
|
|
level, the participation of females in the workforce lags behind (at
|
|
|
|
around 50\%), and 72\% of female carers of an older relative are not in
|
|
|
|
the labour force. This paper explores the reasons why in Latin America
|
|
|
|
adult children remain out of the labour force while caring for an older
|
|
|
|
parent or parent-in-law who has support needs. It draws on 30 in-depth
|
|
|
|
interviews of family carers from low- to high-income households. The
|
|
|
|
interviews were carried out in Chile in 2017, and were analysed using an
|
|
|
|
inductive thematic analysis to identify core themes related to the
|
|
|
|
subjects'' reasons for remaining out of the labour force. Four factors
|
|
|
|
hinder the combination of paid work and caring for a parent or
|
|
|
|
parent-in-law with support needs: (a) externalised care was too
|
|
|
|
expensive; (b) finding non-precarious, flexible work was difficult; (c)
|
|
|
|
their perception of femininity or womanhood conflicted with the idea of
|
|
|
|
combining care and paid work; and (d) they experienced a lack of public
|
|
|
|
and/or social support.'
