In contemporary societies, a set of social and cultural transformations has made the use and distribution of time in the everyday life of women problematic. In Chile, studies of time have contributed to making visible the problems that women face in managing time in their daily lives, but have relegated the relevance of agency for temporal experience to a position of secondary importance. This article introduces the concept of temporal work to show empirically the strategies that Chilean women deploy in the configuration of their experience of time in everyday life. It concludes that, despite the relevance of agency for women's experience of the temporal in Chile, it will continue to be widely determined by the inequalities and asymmetries of the social organization of time and its contradictions in terms of relationships, institutions and structures
