Ancient Egyptians took roll-call at work and recorded reasons for absences. Alongside helping with brewing, mother being ill, helping with embalming duties, and "wife or daughter bleeding" leading to conjecture men were required to help out with their duties during that period. https://mymodernmet.com/ancient-egyptians-attendance-record/
I would like a return to this type of work-life balance. "Hey boss it's Dave, yeah the wife's undies have fallen to communism and I'm doing housework between fetching Naprogesic, hot water bottles and various snacks. See you in five to seven days."
