Studies on socio-economic impacts of climate and energy policies tend to focus on income and expenditure effects. For analyses that go beyond monetary dimensions, time-diary data have proven to be useful. Here we investigate how work time relates to leisure activity structures and associated energy use for different types of employees. To this end, an analysis of time-use data is undertaken for Finland and France. Novel elements are (1) a differentiation between part-time and full-time employees, (2) the use of distinct energy intensities of different activities by household type instead of average energy intensities, and (3) allowing for non-linear relationships between work time and the allocation of other activities. Our results suggest that the effects of work time on energy use are rather homogeneous in Finland, whereas we find more differences between employee types in France. In both countries, adjustment of leisure-activity duration is sometimes strong initially but flattening for longer work hours. This relates to another finding, namely that the composition of leisure activities differs between people with distinct work hours. Our study suggests that analysis of disaggregated time-use data can add relevant insights for evaluation, and possibly design, of energy, climate and labour-market policies.

关于气候和能源政策的社会经济影响的研究往往侧重于收入和支出的影响。对于超出货币规模的分析，已证明时间日志数据是有用的。在这里，我们调查工作时间与休闲活动结构以及不同类型员工的相关能源消耗之间的关系。为此，对芬兰和法国的时间使用数据进行了分析。新颖的要素是：（1）区分兼职和全职雇员；（2）使用按住户类型划分的不同活动的不同能源强度，而不是平均能源强度；（3）允许两者之间存在非线性关系。工作时间和其他活动的分配。我们的结果表明，工作时间对能源使用的影响在芬兰相当均匀，而我们发现法国的员工类型之间存在更多差异。在这两个国家，休闲活动持续时间的调整一开始有时很强，但对于更长的工作时间却趋于平缓。这与另一个发现有关，即在工作时间不同的人之间，休闲活动的组成有所不同。我们的研究表明，对分类的时间使用数据进行分析可以为评估，甚至设计能源，气候和劳动力市场政策提供更多的见识。
