Unpaid work is a part of everyday life in all households; however, its scope and structure vary significantly across countries. Research on household management and unpaid work has shown that not only the duration of unpaid work matters, but also how it is organized and managed within the household. This article builds on a pilot study (2021) and explores the connection between household management and unpaid work activities, explaining the shift in researching this topic in the main phase of the ongoing study, which aims to achieve deeper results and better sampling techniques compared to the pilot survey. In this article, we use literature review methods and the historical-logical method. Preliminary findings suggest that households make limited use of more advanced management strategies when organizing unpaid work. The article also discusses the advantages and limitations of the survey design, aiming to contribute to the broader academic debate on the methodological and conceptual challenges of researching unpaid work.

Klíčová slova: household, management, time use, unpaid work.
