Frustrating new study on pandemic gender inequity: Women have less work effectiveness, flexibility, engagement and wellbeing at work than men. Work-life balance a top issue for women. Doesn't even make the top 10 for men. mck.co/2VuoLYQ via @McKinsey HT @eve_rodsky

Flexible working can make us work longer hours due to blurring of boundaries, passion paradox (wanting to just finish that last bit of work), fear of stigma against working flexibly, and sometimes bc employers just ask for more. see my article from 2016: theconversation.com/flexible-worki…

Important read: Why Are Child Cares Open When Schools Are Not? nytimes.com/2020/08/04/par…
It doesn’t work to move work exactly as it was done at the office to the virtual world. To start, people shouldn’t be judged by the hours they work, but by the product nytimes.com/2020/07/31/ups…
Some truths in here, but again reemphasizes the narrative of childcare as a individual issue/responsibility rather than a societal issue, esp. during times like THE PANDEMIC. It is on organisations and governments to ensure both parents can be involved. gen.medium.com/the-pandemic-i…
