“Across the world, the main responsibility for housework and care-giving tasks, like looking after the family, especially children, the elderly and sick members, lies with women. Yet, as we have seen, the work that women do within the home is not recognised as work. It is also assumed that this is something that comes naturally to women.

Explanation:

Invisible. It means the work that is not seen from our eyes. For example, the main responsibility for housework and caregiving tasks, like looking after the family, especially children, the elderly and sick members, lies with women. There are such works or tasks which are often not recognized as works and therefore remain invisible.

2. Physically demanding. Very tough and difficult tasks. For example, women do a lot of work inside the home. Some of these works such as carrying heavy headloads of firewood, fetching water from a far-off place, washing clothes of the entire family members etc. are very tough and difficult. Still, women do them regularly without making any complaints.

3. Time-consuming. Household works that take much time. For example, women's routine begins from early morning and continues up to late night. During this period they are seen busy in fulfilling the needs and wishes of their family member. They often sit with their children and help them in completing their homework. This is a good example of time-consuming work.
