Abstract

Les auteurs proposent un cadre analytique qui permet d'analyser l'offre de travail des personnes exerçant une profession indépendante non salariée. L'originalité du comportement apparaît dans le fait que la rémunération marginale pour cette activité professionnelle n'est pas une variable observable. L'application concerne les épouses des exploitants agricoles. Dans ce cas, l'allocation du temps de travail s'effectue entre un travail sur l'exploitation ou un travail hors de l'exploitation. Les critères de participation à ces deux activités sont tout d'abord définis. Puis les spécifications des fonctions d'offre de travail précisent comment elles varient en fonction de la participation ou non de l'exploitant au marché du travail hors de l'exploitation et de l'utilisation ou non de travail salarié sur l'exploitation. L'application porte sur des exploitations agricoles françaises. Les estimations économétriques montrent que les probabilités de travailler sur et hors de l'exploitation ne sont pas expliquées par les mêmes facteurs. L'étude des équations d'offre confirme la nécessité de la prise en compte simultanée des comportements d'offre de travail de l'homme et de la femme et de demande de travail salarié sur l'exploitation.
