The Effect of Weekend Work on Shared Leisure Time

Abstract

Using panel data from the Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) Survey, I estimate the effect of weekend work on five measures of shared leisure time. Binary and ordered probit estimates indicate that weekend work has a negative association with all five measures. Fixed effects estimates suggest that weekend work has a negative effect on work–family balance and the probability of club membership, but no significant effect on the frequency of social time, attendance at community events or attendance at religious services.
