WOMEN STILL DO MAJORITY OF HOUSEHOLD CHORES, STUDY FINDS

'Gender equality in divisions of work is rare and gender norms remain strong'

Women are still doing the majority of housework when living with a male partner, a new study has found.

According to the analysis conducted by University College London (UCL) and published in the journal Work, Employment and Society, "gender norms remain strong" when it comes to household chores.

The researchers assessed data from more than 8,500 heterosexual couples who were interviewed for the UK Household Longitudinal Study between 2010 and 2011.

They discovered that women do approximately 16 hours of household chores every week, while men do closer to six.

Furthermore, women did the bulk of the domestic duties in 93 per cent of the couples analysed for the study.

When both individuals in the couples were in full-time employment, women were found to be five times more likely than men to spend at least 20 hours a week doing household chores.

The couples assessed for the study were split into eight separate groups depending on their professions.

These groups included couples who were both earning, couples where the men were the predominant earners and women did the majority of the housework, and more.

The authors of the study stated that two of the groups in particular could be considered "the most egalitarian" – the "female-earner group", which consisted of six per cent of the couples, and the "male domestic long hours" group, the one-per-cent of couples in which men spent long hours doing housework.

"The female-earner group was the only group in which men's contribution to the housework was similar to that of their partners, and this group had the highest proportion of women with educational qualifications higher than those of their partners," the researchers wrote.

While the men in the "male domestic long hours" group spent an average of 20 hours a week doing housework, just under two thirds of the women with whom the men were partnered still also did housework.

The researchers concluded that their study suggests that "gender equality in divisions of work" among modern couples in the UK is "rare", adding that "gender norms remain strong".
