abstract: 'Although previous literature has found substantial differences between female and male workers in almost all labor market outcomes, the question of whether training participation differs between female and male part-time workers has been neglected. This article provides a novel examination of whether the part-time training gap is gender-dependent. Using a Swiss dataset, we find that men engaged in part-time employment suffer from a serious training disadvantage in comparison to men working full-time and that this effect is not found for women. Thus, in countries where part-time participation levels differ significantly between men and women, part-time employment is a bane to men but not to women. Women, however, pay the price merely by virtue of being female.' affiliation: 'Oswald, Y (Corresponding Author), Univ Zurich, Dept Business Adm, Plattenstr 14, CH-8032 Zurich, Switzerland.
