Overworked Families? Changes in the Paid Working Hours of Families with Young Children, 1986 to 2001
Author: Paul Callister
Date: 2005
Published by: Ministry of Social Development: Social Policy Journal
Location: New Zealand
Abstract: Internationally, there is much research interest in the potential challenges associated with overwork within households, particularly for parents raising children. New Zealand census data show that, when individuals are considered, average hours of paid work for employed women and men changed very little between 1986 and 2001. Yet, in this time period, there were significant changes in both employment rates for women and men and a polarisation of hours of work among these individuals.
