In recent months it has been increasingly observed that the Covid-19 pandemic has exacerbat-ed economic and social inequalities, especially from a gender perspective: the overlap between the need to care for children as well as dependent family members, and the household man-agement - with the abrupt shift to working from home - has often led to a setback in families balances, previously centered on the equitable sharing of work and care burdens. The present article pursues three main objectives: firstly, to assess the extent of the gender inequalities gen-erated by the emergency phase; secondly, to analyse how governments’ measures - Italian ones in particular - have affected them; and, lastly, to provide some suggestions on how insti-tutions could prevent a regression in the work equality between men and women in the future, in view of new pandemic waves.
Keywords: Covid-19 - care - gender - inequality - work
