COVID-19 and Korea's Childcare Survey
This survey contains data related to COVID-19 and Korea's childcare survey. Due to social distancing during the heist of COVID-19, the burden of care for each family has increased significantly. In particular, due to the closure of care institutions such as kindergartens and schools, parents with young children suffered a lot. The Center for Transnational Migration and Social Inclusion and Gallup Korea surveyed 1200 married men and women with children 0-12 years old to find about the impact of COVID-19 on care at home. In March 2021, we conducted a second survey that expanded the number of samples to 2016 parents nationwide and added questions about their experiences over the past year. Through this survey, we collected a wide range of information on whether to work from home, experience in caring for children during telecommuting, and who mainly cared for their children and were in charge of housework during social distancing due to COVID-19. Based on the results of these surveys, we are conducting research to see how gender inequality in care, which existed in Korean society, intensifies in emergency situations such as COVID-19, how government policies such as family care leave and emergency care were accepted and what are the problems. The Center for Transnational Migration and Social Inclusion plans to provide practical solutions based on such empirical data to continue to seek alternatives to what measures should be taken if situations such as COVID-19 continue in the future.
