Dr. Fast researches family and consumer policy issues. A major theme is the paid and unpaid work of family members. She is currently investigating the consequences of recent health and social policy reform for family caregivers, and the productive activities of older Canadians during the transition to retirement. She also has documented dramatic changes in women's labour force participation and employment continuity over time, and investigated the ability of "family friendly" workplace policies to help Canadians better balance paid work and family demands. She is frequently asked to provide expert testimony about the economic value of unpaid work in wrongful death, personal injury and child and spousal support cases.
Dr. Fast also researches consumers' pre-purchase information search and processing. Most recently this involved collaboration with graduate students on an investigation of the ability of plain language consumer information to enhance consumers' comprehension of financial agreements, and on development of a survey instrument for evaluating client satisfaction with residential long term care services.
