The main objective of this paper is to analyze the determinants of the gender differences
observed in Spain using a micro-founded model of the labor market. Through the analysis
of the evolution of several variables affecting the household´s optimal choices of leisure,
market work and home work, it is possible to offer a concise and clear understanding about
the time allocation of the individuals. Furthermore, I forecast the evolution of the
household´s time allocation under different possible scenarios. For this purpose, I will
solve the non-linear system of equations of the model using MatLab. The parameter
calibration will adapt to the specific characteristics and working hours of the job market in
Spain. Finally, I will run three different simulations to try to explain the evolution of both
female and male labor supply. [--]
