The recognition of the domestic duties accomplished by women is not only dependent on the time used in undertaking such activities but also depends on the value perception of others as well as women themselves. The article at hand attempts to understand how women value their contribution to the household. It discusses pertinent issues related to the value perception of women regarding unpaid domestic activities resulting in the invisibility of women’s work based on an empirical study in the state of Odisha in India. Further, an attempt has been made to identify the different factors influencing women’s perceptions about their contribution towards their household.
