Publisher description
Choosing to work part-time may seem like an attractive option for many
workers, and it is a fact of the modern workplace that the availability of
part-time work is increasing. However, the authors of this study find that
there are cultural and social meanings attached to part-time work which suggest
that it is in fact not such an easy option. Using case studies of legal
professionals, this book highlights not only the negative sides, but also the
coping strategies utilized to overcome the part-time paradox. The Part-time Paradox provides a brilliant portrayal of the discontents of
the post-industrial workplace and highlights the coping strategies utilised to
overcome them.
