Despite technological progress and the growing availability of digital solutions that could potentially streamline the management and execution of unpaid work, many of these tasks continue to represent a significant temporal and psychological burden. This article aims to identify the forms of unpaid work currently carried out in Slovak households and to explore the barriers that hinder their completion. Based on primary data from an ongoing survey with over 400 respondents, the paper highlights time poverty, paid employment, and stress as key obstacles to performing domestic tasks. Our findings are consistent with international research that conceptualizes time poverty as a multidimensional and systemic social issue. The article also emphasizes the need to support flexible working arrangements and a fairer distribution of household labor, combined with public policy measures that do not underestimate the importance of mental health.
