House work is a specific work required to be done as a duty or for a specific fee, related to or used in the running of a household.
House work can be divided into two categories, indoor and outdoor. Indoor chores might include cooking, setting the table and washing dishes; cleaning, sweeping, vacuuming, dusting and mopping; picking up clothes to the washer and laundry; ironing; lifting and carrying things, putting things away; child and elder care; paying bills. Outdoor work can include decorative and vegetable garden care, lawn and grounds maintenance, animal care, snow removal, driveway maintenance, outbuilding maintenance.
In Neo-classical economic analysis, such house work performed by members of the household are not included in economic output. However, Feminist Economists have argued that housework is a vital part of the economy and society.
