In China, women's social status has increased in recent years as they enter the workforce, which should weaken the gender-role division of labor. However, the family responsibilities of women are still grave. Through a literature review, this study aims to provide an overview of the transformation of Chinese women's labor participation due to the implementation of economic policy and family planning policy, and to clarify the effects of changes in women's labor force participation on the gender division of labor. Although women's labor participation has changed significantly as a result of changes in policies, the traditional gender division of labor consciousness of "woman at home" has not changed significantly. The gender-role division of labor consciousness still binds women, and this consciousness even tends to get reinforced.
