At the heart of Labour's white paper 'Get Britain Working' lies a fundamental problem:

By seeing work as defined as paid employment, it (and by extension the Govt.) downplays a lot of women's unpaid work (not least of all around care responsibilities).

As the Women's Budget Group point out, much unpaid work actually makes other economically defined work possible.

We need a major rethink about economic contribution(s), if that's how we value work!
