The chart illustrates how household tasks are divided between men and women in Great Britain.
Overall, women spend significantly more time on domestic work than men. In almost all categories, females are responsible for the majority of household duties, while males contribute less time, particularly to routine tasks.
In detail, women devote the largest amount of time to cooking, cleaning, and childcare. Cooking and washing appear to be the most time-consuming activities for women, whereas men spend considerably fewer hours on these tasks. Childcare also shows a clear gender gap, with women taking on the main responsibility.
By contrast, men spend more time on traditionally male-associated tasks such as gardening and maintenance, although the time spent on these activities is still lower compared to the total time women spend on daily chores. Shopping is the most evenly shared task, with only a small difference between genders.
In conclusion, the chart highlights a clear imbalance in household labor in Great Britain, showing that women continue to carry the greater burden of domestic responsibilities
