The aim of this article is to analyze the inequalities between men and
women at the Spanish labour market from a particular gender perspective.
We start from the premise that these inequalities can only be understood
and explained if they are analysed considering their connection with
the inequalities that take place in the context of the gender domestic
relations. We consider that these inequalities are the result of the conjunction
of the dynamics of the «new capitalism» enterprises, which is
characterized for demanding the maximum availability from the employees,
and the asymmetrical gender relations, which invade the whole
social order and are particularly active within the domestic sphere. From a
methodological point of view this connection is argued using the temporal
dimension, on the basis of the analysis of the Time Use Survey which has
been carried out by the Spanish National Statistics Institute in 2009-2010.
