In spring 2017, HAS’s Centre for Social Sciences conducted another nationwide, representative questionnaire-based survey as the third stage of the longitudinal research. As part of this survey the following topics could be examined: (1) personally experienced discrimination; (2) social perception of discrimination, and (3) awareness of and attitudes concerning the legal background of equal treatment, as well as awareness of the Equal Treatment Authority (EBH). This study presents the most important findings of the survey. Wherever relevant and made possible by the data structure, we also compare the results with the findings of the two earlier stages.

The empirical base of our study consisted of 22 in-depth interviews conducted with Hungarian mothers of dependent children younger than 14, living in (heterosexual) couple households, who bring in at least 60 per cent of the total household earnings. We examined how the main breadwinner role might affect the gender norm expectations acquired during socialisation, the division of domestic labour and child care duties between the partners, as well as the internal power relations of the couple.
According to our findings, various versions of work-life balance management could be identified even within our small-scale qualitative sample on the basis of two main dimensions.
On the one hand, on the basis of our interviewees’ accounts we examined whether the partners had similar role expectations in terms of egalitarian sharing of family related tasks or traditionally gendered role specialisation. On the other hand, we have also considered to what extent other contextual factors contributed to women becoming primary breadwinners, and whether these were perceived in terms of external constraints or preferred choices (or both). On the basis of our analyses we have identified four models of family relations in the context of primary female breadwinning: the traditional, the egalitarian, the externally forced role reversal and the consciously implemented role reversal models.
