The results of research on domestic labour consistently show that women are responsible for more housework tasks than men. At the same time, there is growing public awareness of gender role equality. However, there is little evidence on whether there has been any change in the perception of fairness in the division of housework and whether this view differs in different families. Using data from the ISSP 2002 and 2011/2012, this article seeks to explore the relationship between the division of housework and its perceived fairness. Using latent class regression analysis four distinct types of housework division and perceptions and individual characteristics that predict cluster membership of housework division are identified. The most prevalent type are couples in which there is a traditional division of housework and who divide further into two groups based on whether they view this division is fair or unfair. Cohabiting couples are more likely than married couples to share housework equally and to see this arrangement as fair. Based on a distributive justice perspective, important predictors of cluster membership are found to be relative income, economic activity, gender, and partnership status. However, the findings provide only limited evidence of any change in the division of housework and perceptions about housework in the Czech Republic over the last decade.

The article presents the process of constructing female identity with the reference to the traditional model of womanhood. The arguments presented refer to the changes in the division of housework. According to the stereotypical model of a womanhood, the ‘polished floor’ that appears in the title is described as one of the effects of a diligent fulfillment of the obligations assigned to women. The autoethnographic narrative that demonstrates personal experience of the author accompanies the conducted analyses. The article presents an analysis of a popular Facebook fan page ‘Sh* Housewife’, which constitutes an embodiment of the women’s resistance strategy against the housework being treated as a ‘natural’ calling and obligation of a woman. The final conclusions clearly indicate that the social and cultural changes that have led to the equality of women and men have not altered the convictions and models of performing housework.

The household production is a big aggregate which has no reflection in the current European system of national accounts. The market value of that production accounts for less than 10- 15% of the total household production. Generally, household production can be estimated using the input method. Unpaid household work is the main input. There were many proposals of the way of estimating household work, but most economists prefer the market cost method. The first full sequence of accounts, entitled the Household Production Satellite Account for Poland (HHSA) was developed for 2011. It was proven that the value of the household work constitutes approximately 80% of the total value of household production, while the total value of household production in relation to GDP amounted to approximately 36.5%. Providing the regular calculation of the HHSA, which is a supporting tool for the core national accounts, will allow the recognition and better understanding of the transfers and interactions between the market and households. The value and size of the goods and services produced by households can be compared with similar products produced on the market by enterprises.

W artykule omówiono wycenę produkcji domowej w postaci rachunku satelitarnego. Przedstawiono monetarną kalkulację dla gospodarstw domowych opracowaną na podstawie badania budżetów czasu ludności w 2013 r. Do ustalenia wartości pracy domowej zastosowano metodę nakładu opartą na iloczynie czasu przeznaczanego na wykonywanie nieodpłatnych prac domowych według funkcji gospodarstwa domowego (zapewnienia i utrzymania mieszkania, zapewnienia wyżywienia, zapewnienia i utrzymania odzieży, opieki nad dziećmi i osobami starszymi, wolontariatu) oraz stawki wynagrodzenia według zawodów. Celem badania było pokazanie wielkości nierynkowej produkcji domowej, która mimo nieuwzględnienia jej w rachunkach narodowych może dostarczyć informacji, m.in. o poziomie i jakości życia gospodarstw domowych oraz ich wkładzie w gospodarkę. Na podstawie analizy wykazano, że nierynkowa działalność wytwórcza gospodarstw domowych pięciokrotnie przewyższa wartość rynkowej produkcji domowej. Regularne opracowywanie rachunku satelitarnego produkcji domowej może wypełnić lukę w statystyce.

This article discusses the valuation of household production in the form of a Household Satellite Account. Monetary household calculation based on ”Time Use Survey 2013” was presented. In order to determine the value of household work, an input method was used, based on the amount of time spent on unpaid home-based household chores (providing and maintaining housing, meals and clothing as well as child and adult care or volunteering) and earning rates by occupation. The aim of the research was to indicate the size of non-market household production, which although not included in national accounts could provide information about i.a. the households level and quality of life as well as their contribution to the economy. On the basis of the analysis, non-market household production is five times higher than the market household production. Regular development of Household Satellite Account can fill the gap in statistics.
