Household Satellite Account (Experimental)

Many of us know the value of our work because we get paid for it, but what about the unpaid work we do - like cooking, cleaning, DIY and childcare?

The Household Satellite Account (HHSA) measures and values the unpaid outputs produced by households in the UK. Experimental estimates for the year 2000 can be found in the UK Account.

Details about the different activities which make up the account are also available:

Housing, Transport, Nutrition, Clothing and laundry services, Childcare, Adult Care, Voluntary activity, Intermediate Consumption, Household Capital, Time/Labour

The HHSA is produced by the Office for National Statistics as part of a series of experimental statistics. This work is part of a wide range of statistics covering different aspects of the economy.

Feedback from potential users is most welcome at any time. Please let us know by 31st May 2002 if you are planning to comment on the methodology, by e-mailing hhsa@ons.gov.uk
