00:00Women's groups are teaming up with the government on International Women's Day to highlight
00:05the issue of unpaid labour.
00:08In Taiwan, women make up about 80% of family caregivers, shouldering most long-term care
00:13responsibilities.
00:15While more women between 18 and 44 are now in the workforce, many leave after 45 to care
00:21for aging family members.
00:24Advocacy groups say women do three times more unpaid work than men.
00:28The government plans to boost funding for elderly care, childcare and family leave to
00:33help ease the burden.
