Imagine you and your partner are both working from home. While it can be convenient, two recent studies from China and South Korea have found that the experience may not be the same for both. These studies looked specifically at dual-earner couples and discovered that in some ways, working from home can be a better arrangement for husbands than wives. It’s like when you and your sibling are given a big bag of candy to share, but one of you ends up with more of the good stuff. The studies did not identify any specific reasons for this gender disparity, but it’s clear that there are unique challenges faced by women in remote work environments. It could be due to societal expectations or uneven division of household chores. In any case, the findings raise important questions about gender equality within work-from-home arrangements.
