Broader parental responsibilities, like cooking meals or maintaining the household, are often dismissed as irrelevant.
'The FWC appears to have assumed that flexible work requests as a parent will only have a requisite nexus where the parent can prove they are engaging in exclusive, direct caregiving responsibilities,' Selvarajah said in her paper.
'This neglects other potential parental obligations such as preparing meals or cleaning the home.'
She warned the Commission's strict evidentiary standards are likely to disproportionately affect women, who tend to carry the bulk of caregiving responsibilities.
'This does not align with the Fair Work Act's objective of promoting gender equality,' she说。
