摘要：

The aim of this article is to estimate the relationship between housework and wages for heterosexual couples living together in Chile. Using information of the time use for 2015, the main results confirm the existence of a negative association between housework and wages for women, with an estimate of 3.7 %. Further analyses reveal that occupations mediate the association between housework and wages, whereas around 12 % of the gender wage gap is explained by the time devoted by women to housework.
