Abstract

El objetivo de este artículo es construir perfiles de tiempo destinado a la producción del hogar y su consumo por sexo y edad para Uruguay. Para ello, se aplica una extensión de la metodología del sistema de Cuentas Nacionales de Transferencias, la cual implica estimar la producción del hogar en unidades de tiempo y luego valorizarla. Las actividades consideradas corresponden a aquellas que pueden ser transferidas a un tercero, y para su valorización se recurre al método del costo de reemplazo. Los datos provienen de la Encuesta de Uso del Tiempo elaborada por el Instituto Nacional de Estadística en el ano 2007. Los resultados muestran que las mujeres dedican más tiempo que los varones a la producción del hogar en todas las edades. Además se observa que a mayor nivel educativo de los individuos, parecería generarse un efecto positivo sobre la equidad de género al interior de la familia
