• Migration and Care Work in Spain: The Domestic Sector Revisited (2010, background): “…service provision, together with the still entrenched reliance on and social acceptability of private and informal forms of care (Parrela Rubio, 2003; Bettio et al., 2006) and a certain animosity towards more institutionalised forms of care provision, would explain people’s preference for cash…”
• Gender segregation in the labour market : root causes, implications and policy responses in the EU (2009, background): “35 ‘rotation’ with friends or relatives in order to cope with family commitments back home, but also to counter the stress that the job entails (Bettio et al. 2006).”
