Resumo: This paper analyzes the differences of wage and time allocation between married and single individuals in Brazil in order to understand how marriage is associated with the wage distribution, the hours of work and the time spent in domestic labor of men and women. For that purpose, we use data from the National Household Sample Survey (PNAD) for the year 2015 and we employ three different estimation methods for complex surveys: ordinary least squares, Propensity Score Weighting, and Propensity Score Matching. The results indicate that married men have higher wage and work hours than single men, whereas married women increase their likelihood of performing domestic labor, as well as the hours spent in such activities. We also fi nd evidence that the time allocation between men and women is affected by the comparative advantage of the couple.   Keywords: marriage, labor, housework, comparative advantage, gender.

Utilizamos dados da Pesquisa Nacional por Amostra de Domicílios (PNAD) para o ano de 2015 e aplicamos três diferentes métodos de estimação para amostras complexas: mínimos quadrados ordinários, Propensity Score Weighting e Propensity Score Matching. Os resultados indicam que homens casados apresentam salário e jornada de trabalho consistentemente superiores aos homens solteiros, enquanto mulheres casadas aumentam sua probabilidade de exercer tarefa doméstica, bem como a jornada de trabalho doméstico. Também encontramos evidências de que a alocação de tempo dos cônjuges em relação ao mercado de trabalho é afetada pela vantagem comparativa do casal.
