Multinational Time Use Study (MTUS)

The Multinational Time Use Study (MTUS) is a research project that collects and analyzes data on how people in different countries spend their time. It uses detailed diaries where individuals record daily activities, providing insights into work, leisure, family, and household tasks. By comparing data across nations and cultures, MTUS helps understand patterns in daily life, social behavior, and economic activities. This information is valuable for policymakers, researchers, and social scientists aiming to improve work-life balance, social services, and economic policies worldwide.
