Résumé

En ce qui concerne la division entre le travail rémunéré et le travail non rémunéré, il y a quelques différences en Allemagne entre l'Est et l'Ouest. Les données sur la participation de la main-d'oeuvre et le revenu, et le travail domestique soulignent ces différences. L'embauche de domestique est discutée sous l'aspect de l'inégalité entre les femmes.
