The Value Of Unpaid Work

Unpaid work in Australia was worth $261 billion according to The Australian Bureau of Statistics. (Unpaid work and the Australian Economy, Cat no. 5240.0)

91% of this figure is made up of unpaid household work.

Women contributed to 65% of unpaid household work, this was worth $154.05 billion of the total.

Women also contributed the equivalent of $13.44 billion to the remainder of unpaid work (volunteer and community work).
