abstract: 'Despite some attention devoted to part-time employment with insufficient
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
or inadequate work hours, research is still too limited on how the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
burden of underemployment is distributed disproportionately on
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
vulnerable workers and its implications for financial well-being and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
work-family balance. Furthermore, scarce research considers the role of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
control over work hours in the context of worker underemployment. Using
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
unique data and measures constructed from a nationally representative
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
survey of the 2006 and 2016 US General Social Survey, we find that being
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
part-time underemployed is concentrated toward workers who are minority,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
lower income, and employed in certain service occupations. Multivariate
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
analysis reveals that, relative to both part-time workers satisfied with
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
their hours and to full-time workers, the part-time underemployed endure
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
significantly greater risks of facing lower financial status and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
financial dis-satisfaction. Part-time underemployed workers also
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
experience more frequent work-to-family conflict, compared to other
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
part-time workers, and no less than otherwise comparable full-time
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
workers. Their elevated work-family conflict is intensified when having
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
limited control over their work hours. We derive implications of these
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
findings for preventative public policies that would help curb both the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
extent and the harms of underemployment, recently rendered even more
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
necessary by its rise during the 2020 recession.'
