Women work patterns and unpaid work hours undergo significant changes across life stages. This paper develops an activity time allocation model integrated interaction between spouses based on the Nested Logit model. Furthermore, it examines whether telework adoption and the mutual respect for individual activities between spouses contribute to increased women’s paid work hours. The model reveals that key factors reducing women's paid work hours include the number of children, the extent of the wife's unpaid workload, and her contributions to household members, such as supporting her husband's paid work activities. Simulation results indicate that when husband place less emphasize on his own individual activities, joint activity hours with their wives and children increases. Furthermore, the study highlights the potential benefits of integrating shared office spaces with pick-up and drop-off services to childcare facilities, which are expected to alleviate commuting burdens and promote a more balanced time allocation within households.
