Domestic work and family welfare: the resilience of the system at risk
The field of domestic work has experienced a notable decline inrecent years. The figures, though boosted by the regularisation of
2020, attest to a gradual and sustained decline over the past decade. In the two-year period between 2021 and 2023, the decline has
been particularly notable. According to data from Istat, there has been a reduction of 145,000 in the number of people employed,
representing a contraction of 9.5%, despite the labour market reaching new records in terms of participation.
