dc.description.abstractThe study aims to explore the division of housework among Indian married working women during the COVID-19 pandemic. The findings show that reasons that lead to unequal division of housework include: (i) housework is routine work for women; (ii) obligation; (iii) women uphold higher cleanliness and tidiness standards than men; (iv) traditional gender roles and parents’ socialisation; and (v) time availability. The findings also highlights that informants experienced stressed and dissatisfied with the unequal division of housework during the COVID-19 pandemic because housework is considered as women’s responsibility and not men's.
