Time Poverty

Time poverty refers to the fact that some individuals spend so much time in paid and/or unpaid work that they do not have time for rest or leisure. Gender roles and the higher burden of care and unpaid work that women bear make them at greater risk to face time poverty. Refer readings on care and unpaid work for readings related to time use data.
