本文利用1994年、2000年和2009年对20-49岁的人进行的全国横断面调查以及2009年对2000年调查的后续调查的数据，对日本夫妇的就业与家务劳动之间的关系变化进行了研究。妻子的就业结构取决于丈夫的就业时间和赚钱能力，以及她们的家庭状况，包括子女的存在和年龄以及与父母同住。丈夫的家务劳动时间虽然很少，但随着时间的推移而增加，而妻子的时间则减少。妻子做家务的时间随着她们工作时间的增加而减少。婚姻极大地增加了女性的家务劳动时间，但对男性的时间几乎没有影响。丈夫的家务劳动时间与夫妻双方的婚姻满意度呈正相关。
The paper examines changes in the relationship between employment and household tasks of Japanese couples, using data drawn from national cross-sectional surveys in 1994, 2000 and 2009 of persons aged 20–49 and from the 2009 follow-up of the 2000 survey. Wives’ employment is structured by their husbands’ employment time and earning power, as well as by their family situations including the presence and age of children and coresidence with parents. Housework hours of husbands, though very low, increased over time, while wives’ hours decreased. Wives housework time decreases as their employment time increases. Marriage dramatically increases women’s housework time but produces little change in men’s time. Husbands’ housework hours are positively correlated with reported marital satisfaction of both spouses.
