THIS article uses a simultaneous equation model to explain the number of hours of paid market work by husbands and wives. The analysis is restricted to married couples living together where both wife and husband have jobs working for money. Within this context, whites and blacks are compared as salaried, union hourly, and nonunion hourly groups. The substitutability or complementarity of husbands' and wives' hours of market work is examined. Black husbands appear to treat their wives' work as complementary to their own hours of work. On the other hand, white husbands on salaries appear to see their wives' work as a substitute for their own work
