Abstract

Part-time employment, which has been increasing in many developed countries since 1970, has recently become a current issue with low job quality. Different indicators have been used to measure job quality that contributes to the well-being of employees and inherently represents by a multidimensional structure. Among these indicators, for instance, OECD Job Quality Framework is structured in three main dimensions: earning quality, labour market insecurity and quality of the work environment. In this line, this study mainly aims to examine the relationship between the quantity of part-time employment and job quality indicators by correlation and multiple linear regression analysis methods, by using data from OECD countries. Empirical results display that higher part-time employment rates are related to better job quality. This relationship is a result that part-time employment rates are higher in developed OECD countries while being lower in developing OECD countries. Also, regression analysis reveals that the increase in earning quality, training and learning and opportunity of career advancement as well as the reduction in physical health risk factors may increase the quantity of part-time employment at varying degrees.

Abstract

1970’den beri birçok gelişmiş ülkede giderek artış gösteren kısmi süreli istihdam, son zamanlarda düşük iş kalitesi ile gündeme gelmektedir. Çalışanların mutluluğuna katkıda bulunan ve doğası gereği çok boyutlu bir yapıyı temsil eden iş kalitesini ölçmek için farklı göstergeler kullanılmaktadır. Bu göstergeler arasında, örneğin OECD İş Kalitesi Çerçevesi kazanç kalitesi, işgücü piyasası güvencesi ve çalışma ortamının kalitesi olmak üzere üç temel boyutta yapılandırılmıştır. Bu açıdan, bu çalışma temel olarak, OECD ülkelerinin verilerini kullanarak, korelasyon ve çoklu doğrusal regresyon analizi yöntemleri ile kısmi süreli istihdam hacmi ile iş kalitesi göstergeleri arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Ampirik sonuçlar, daha yüksek kısmi süreli istihdam oranlarının, daha iyi iş kalitesiyle ilişkili olduğunu göstermektedir. Bu ilişki, kısmi süreli istihdam oranlarının gelişmiş OECD ülkelerinde daha yüksek, gelişmekte olan OECD ülkelerinde ise, daha düşük olmasının bir sonucudur. Ayrıca regresyon analizi; kazanç kalitesi, eğitim ve öğrenme ile kariyer ilerleme fırsatındaki artışın ve fiziksel sağlık risk faktörlerindeki azalmanın, kısmi süreli istihdam hacmini farklı derecelerde artırabileceğini ortaya koymaktadır.
