2020 & 2021 Childcare Amid Covid-19 Surveys and Interviews
Due to social distancing to prevent the spreading of COVID-19, households have gone through an increased burden of care work. This spring, kindergartens and schools have closed down which elevated the burden for parents with young children. The Center for Transnational Migration and Social Inclusion and Gallup Korea surveyed 1200 married men and women with children under 12 years old to identify issues related to telecommuting and childcare. Based on this survey, we are currently evaluating how emergency situations such as COVID-19 affected gender inequality in childcare and division of paid and unpaid labor. The Center for Transnational Migration and Social Inclusion plans to provide practical solutions based on such empirical data.
2018 Qualitative Interviews of Unpaid and Paid Care Workers on Eldercare and Childcare
This data includes 96 interviews conducted between May to December 2018 on paid and unpaid childcare providers of children and elders. Seoul National University researchers and Gallup Korea divided interviewees based on whether they took care of children/elders and whether they were paid or not. Through such classification of interviewees, we were able to understand the current situation of childcare labor and its characteristics in various perspectives. We plan to use the data for analyzing childcare labor within South Korea.
