Part-time work is becoming more important in many countries as the labor market participation of married women has risen. This paper analyzed the characteristics of the U.S. part-time work considering trend, distribution, composition and within-group differences as well as the intertwined relationships among wage changes, access to social benefits, and regulation measures. Relatively little attention has been paid to the U.S. case so far.
Currently, U.S. workers work more hours on average than any other countries. The part-time jobs in the U.S. are less likely to have access to employer-provided benefits nor well protected by federal regulations. Only involuntary part-time work increased driven by the demand-side factors. This has been supported by the fact that the U.S. is an unique case with an overall low share of part-time employment in recent 20 years and that the growth occurred when unemployment rates were high.
Both federal and state-level regulatory measures for part-timers are needed for improving the quality of part-time jobs, otherwise two-track development of good versus bad part-time jobs will be unavoidable in the United States.
