Título If You Dare To Ask: Self-Perceived Possibilities of Spanish Fathers to Reduce Work Hours
Autor(es) Fernández-Lozano, Irina

Abstract Time scarcity is a reality for most mothers and fathers of young children who work full-time. Though the Spanish law recognises a specific right to a reduced schedule for care reasons, fathers very rarely make use of this policy. Many of them simply think that, in their current employment circumstances, they ‘can’t’ cut down on work hours. This analysis focuses on the subjective perception that employees have on their difficulty to reduce work hours. Using a nationally representative sample of Spanish employees in charge of young children, and drawing on intersectionality perspectives, we propose that several stratification systems (e.g. gender vs economic structure) overlap framing the subjective experience of how easy or difficult it is to adopt a reduced schedule. We confirm that fathers holding middle level service occupations (e.g. clerical workers) may be those who are ‘undoing gender’ at work, as they differ significantly in their perception that for them it would be difficult to reduce their work hours.
