| Part-time working has become one of the most significant patterns of work in the European Community in that it represents a growing segment of the increasingly service-oriented labour market. This has occured alongside the feminisation of the labour force through the expansion of "pink collar" occupations in the service sector industries. This paper briefly examines data for parttime working in the European Community. These patterns and trends are related to female participation rates, labour shortages, and the relative importance of the service sector in the European economies. the role of the trade unions and the state in providing support for working parents and/or encouraging part-time initiatives is also considered. The paper concludes with some possible reasons for the variations in part-time participation in individual member states and the implications of these for women's future participation in the labour force | |
