Report: The Modern Families Index 2017
The report covers the following areas:
- Balancing the twin currencies: time and money
- Working hours squeezing parents’ family time
- The impact of time-poverty
- The ‘flexibility gap’
- The ‘fatherhood penalty’
- Sharing caring – mothers, fathers and grandparents.
The index explores the pressure points where family life and work meet, and how these vary according to demographic and other circumstances. It is designed to inform policy, the configuration of the labour market and employment practice.
