The National Conference Paid Work in Swiss Households was co-organised by the Economic Geography Working Group at the University of Zurich and the Denknetz working group “Prekarität”. It provides a platform for scholars, experts and activists to discuss timely developments and issues in the field of paid work at private households: its status quo, legal framework and imminent future. Regarding the scientific exploration of 24-hour care, the bi-lingual conference includes presentations of the results of the Swiss National Science Foundation project "Care Markets", which was conducted by Karin Schwiter, Huey-Shy Chau und Katharina Pelzelmayer.
