Should Housewives Be Given A Salary For Their Work

Domestic jobs are still mostly female domains. There are few men who have no problem getting a vacuum cleaner or doing the laundry. True, there are rare specimens that enjoy some household affairs, such as ironing or buying food, but they are really rare. Make sure to get in touch with us.

Any woman who does most of her home business alone is aware that her “job” will never be paid. Women who do not work out of home, but care for households and children – popularly called “housewives,” about any salary for their work can only dream of.

But they decided to change in some countries and housewives are entitled to salary and retirement

Under the Labor Law Reform, some countries have decided to acknowledge home work, estimated to account for as much as 15 percent of Equatorial GDP, and encompasses more than 1.5 million “home workers”.

“Housewives” will now be included in the social protection system, thus gaining the right to health care and retirement.

Homework is a full-time job

The right to basic health insurance is available to all and even “housewives” and can often be found in the category of “subsidized household members”. The new Social Welfare Act, introduced the institute of a guaranteed minimal benefit to which they are entitled and those who have never worked.

It is interesting that the some Governments proposed a Law on Occasional Jobs, which provided for the payment of household work. However, after a lengthy public debate and sharp opposition from the unions, this proposal was withdrawn and no longer discussed about it.

According to the Center for Educational, Counseling and Research (CESI) research, the burden of housework falls on a woman, and this mostly relates to tasks that need to be performed on a daily basis. Men often take part in occasional household work, such as home improvement and bill payments.

Some research has shown that doing home affairs is an amazing 92 hours a week. Comparing it with regular time, a “housewife” actually makes a “double shift”. About what and how to do a woman who is doing housework outside of her home business, we will not even talk.

According to some estimates, if “housewives” were paid for their hourly work, they could earn about minimum of 5000 dollars a month. The only question is who would pay them?

Housewives are looking for a salary

The problem of “housewives” and honoring their work has been trying to solve many countries around the world.

Namely, Americans calculated that, if someone would pay them, their “housewives” earned more than $ 149,000 a year.

However, women in the United States stay at home and take care of their children and their home, they are completely financially dependent on their husbands. Except, of course, if you do not start a job from home.
