Abstract
The paper considers the determinants of health of Russia's population with regard to the allocation of the daily time fund, while controlling for the basic socio-demographic characteristics of individuals. The paper aims to identify the relationship between health and the structure of daily time use by Russian households. An integral health index was constructed using the principal component analysis based on the data of the Sample Observation of Daily Time Use by the Population, and its relationship with the main types of daily activity was tested. The study showed that the population health is a function of time allocation decisions. Individual health is adversely affected by working more than 7.95 hours per day. However, women can devote more time to paid work than men without compromising their health. The findings are robust and can be used to inform regulatory decisions.
