The Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) introduces a policy toolkit to address the gap in unpaid care, aiming to support and empower unpaid carers. Senator Bob Casey calls for an inquiry into the economic contributions of women's unpaid work, highlighting the need for comprehensive family leave policies and equitable pay. Jessica Calarco's book emphasizes the importance of a social safety net and labor unions in protecting workers and reducing inequality. Mothers returning to the workforce face precarity due to the lack of a sturdy safety net. Investing in universal paid leave, childcare, and a robust minimum wage is crucial to support mothers in the workforce. #UnpaidCare #GenderEquality #SocialSafetyNet...
