How is the domestic load shared in your household?
Would you say it’s more or less equal, or, as in so many Aussie households, is the division of domestic labour and childcare a battleground?
The pandemic created what experts describe as an unprecedented external shock, forcing homes to temporarily become our primary workplaces as well as the locations where all the care was happening.
