Himanshu Soni on Instagram: "For decades, millions of homemakers have worked tirelessly for their families without a salary, without holidays, and often without recognition. Now, a landmark Supreme Court observation has started an important national conversation. The Court recognized that the contribution of a homemaker is not “invisible work.” It has real economic value. In a recent compensation case, the Court observed that the notional value of a homemaker’s domestic work should be considered at ₹30,000 per month, with periodic increases over time. The judgment also acknowledged that the loss of a homemaker is not just an emotional loss for a family—it is also the loss of care, management, support, and countless hours of unpaid labor. This is about much more than compensation. It is about recognition. A homemaker may not receive a monthly salary, but she manages households, raises children, supports careers, cares for elders, and contributes significantly to society and the economy. For years, domestic work has been taken for granted. Perhaps it is time we start asking a simple question: Why do we value work only when it comes with a paycheck?
