Unpaid work in the public sector, its extent and measurement methods

Human work as a goal-seeking activity is the most important factor of sustainable growth. Although the priority of both theory and practice is mainly paid work, the importance of unpaid work and its benefits for the  economy is notable. There are several studies and analyses proving this. There also exist several reasons why to look into unpaid work – the value of unpaid work increases total output of the economy, its volume has an impact on consumption of goods and services going through the market and, in the end, the tax revenues. Last, but not least, the extent of unpaid work affects participation of some individuals on the labour market, which violates work-life balance. The purpose of the study is to specify the mutual relationship between paid and unpaid work following the particularities of the labour market in the public sector, to identify the reasons for the existence of unpaid work and to characterize its manifestations in the public sector. Next, by examination of the alternatives of measurement of the unpaid work extent within the public sector to estimate its volume and to identify the impact of unpaid work on households (individuals) from the aspect of work life balance, and consumption of public services. On the grounds of the acquired knowledge and results of our own research, we will formulate proposals for the elimination of the negative impact of unpaid work from the aspect of the state economic policy and its instruments. The most significant gains from the study results reside in systematic research of the reasons and manifestations of unpaid work in the public sector, in the assessment of suitability of the selected methods of unpaid work extent measurement, and in the estimation of unpaid work in the public sector.
