Part-Time Prospects: An International Comparison de Colette Fagan

Part-Time Prospects: An International Comparison

Editat de Colette Fagan, Jacqueline O'Reilly
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 mar 1998
The growth in part-time employment has been one of the most striking features in industrialized economies over the past forty years. Part-Time Prospects presents for the first time a systematically comparative analysis of the common and divergent patterns in the use of part-time work in Europe, America and the Pacific Rim. It brings together sociologists and economists in this wide-ranging and comprehensive survey. It tackles such areas as gender issues, ethnic questions and the differences between certain national economies including low pay, pensions and labour standards.
