Salary.com, a company specialized in analyzing salaries, yesterday made public the indicative calculation of salary that an American mother who works at home should earn a year, $ 138,095 (101,905 euros).
To make these numbers they conducted an online survey of 30,000 mothers, of whom 14,000 also worked outside the home, they should receive an additional salary of $ 85,000 for the tasks involved in the home.
What we all know is that a mother works from the moment she gets up until she goes to bed, not at all there are schedules but the work ends when the day ends. According to statistics, 92 hours are worked weekly, not everything can be considered work, being a mother is a gift, but we transmit the data that the source provides. Housewife, cook, teacher, washing machine operator, driver, porter, maintenance officer, psychologist, computer operator ... what do you add ?. And it is not only the time that mothers spend on homework, it is also the little time we spend on rest, a mother who works away from home sleeps 6.4 hours, while housewives sleep 6.7 hours, There is not much difference, but this lack of sleep ends up being paid. In addition, our statistics state that moms sleep less than 6 hours ...
Fortunately, in many homes, parents are fully involved in the care and care of the house and family, much more if the mother works outside, but should mothers receive a salary for household chores?
On Mom.Salary.com they have created the “Mom's Check” for US residents, where you can find a salary calculator that a woman should earn according to the children she has, if she works outside the home and the place of residence. This hypothetical check can be given to the mother on Mother's Day, they will also enter a raffle to get the salary of one year for the first prize and ten salaries of one week for the following.
