The Changing Nature of Part-time Work
(by Grant Schellenberg, 1997, approx. 50 pp., #519, $15.00)
A sobering look at the problems faced by those who work part-time, showing that part-time workers are losing out in the trend toward highly skilled jobs involving new technologies. The author also finds that although their numbers increased in the 1990s, most part-time jobs offered low wages, access to few benefits, and little job security.
