Huishoudelijke arbeid en huishoudelijke technologie. Strategieën van vrouwen om tijd te besparen bij huishoudelijke arbeid?

Samenvatting

Do household technology and contracting out help save time spent on housework? For this study, a survey called Labour and Care data was conducted with 1420 female respondents aged 25-45. The dataset has data on time use as well as data on four types of home appliances and four forms of contracting. None of the four home appliances led to a decline in time spent on housework, nor did three of the four forms of contracting out. However, one form can be considered a time-saving strategy, i.e the cleaning person. This strategy is followed by working women in particular. With the help of a cleaning person, working women reduce the time spent on cleaning by 75%.
