understood, and the impact of collection
requirements on respondents can be
properly assessed. The Bureau of Labor
Statistics (BLS) is soliciting comments
concerning the proposed revision to the
‘‘American Time Use Survey (ATUS).’’ A
copy of the proposed information
collection request (ICR) can be obtained
by contacting the individual listed

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The ATUS is the Nation’s first
federally administered, continuous
survey on time use in the United States.
It measures, for example, time spent
with children, working, sleeping, or
doing leisure activities. In the United
States, several existing Federal surveys
collect income and wage data for
individuals and families, and analysts
often use such measures of material
prosperity as proxies for quality of life.
Time-use data substantially augment
these quality-of-life measures. The data
also can be used in conjunction with
wage data to evaluate the contribution
of non-market work to national
economies. This enables comparisons of
production between nations that have
different mixes of market and nonmarket activities.
The ATUS develops nationally
representative estimates of how people
spend their time. Respondents also
report who was with them during
activities, where they were, how long
each activity lasted, and if they were
paid. All of this information has
numerous practical applications for
sociologists, economists, educators,
government policymakers,
businesspersons, health researchers, and
others, potentially answering the
following questions:
• Do the ways people use their time
vary across demographic and labor force
characteristics, such as age, sex, race,
ethnicity, employment status, earnings,
and education?
• How much time do parents spend
in the company of their children, either
actively providing care or being with
them while socializing, relaxing, or
doing other things?
• How are earnings related to leisure
time—do those with higher earnings
spend more or less time relaxing and
socializing?
• Where do people work—at a
workplace, in their homes, or someplace
else?
The ATUS data are collected on an
ongoing, monthly basis, so time series
data will eventually become available,
allowing analysts to identify changes in
how people spend their time.
