      ab: Using the first Indian 2019 Time Use Survey, we investigate the association between women's time spent on unpaid care work (UCW) and their employment status and whether this association differs by socio-demographic characteristics such as age, marital status, education level and household size, controlling for religion, social group status, household monthly expenditure and geographical location (e.g. rural versus urban settings). Using multinomial logistic regression, an inverse association was found between women's UCW and their employment status. An hour increase in women's time spent on UCW decreased their odds of employment, self-employment or pursuing higher education by 38 per cent, 27 per cent and 34 per cent, respectively. According to a decomposition analysis, almost 80 per cent of the odds ratios for employment status were due to increased time spent on UCW rather than the influence of socio-demographic characteristics. Findings underscore the need for integrating care provisions into the broader social and economic agenda for the country.
