With Covid-19 upending many established norms, this research provides insights on how the pandemic has the potential to dilute decades of advancement in gender equality. To explore this issue, data was collected from female university teachers. It is possible that they may have more chances of experiencing the intensified gendered division of work. The study attempts to explore the impact of change in house help arrangement in Covid-19 on female university teachers. To understand this, firstly, the employment of house helps in pre Covid-19 was compared to house help employment during Covid-19. This difference was recognized as the added workload that resulted from the unemployment of house helps. Then finally, the reallocation of added workload shows how the burden was distributed among family members. Results unveil that women are shouldering the intensified burden brought by the pandemic way more than men. This research from a developing nation context sheds light on how the pre-existing gender expectations are leading women to experience the burden of gendered labor more intensely in Covid-19.
