“…Part-time may reflect 'optimal flexibility' among some women. However, for others it may be, at least perceived, poor quality, represent a lack of 'choice' (Fagan et al, 2012;Green and Livanos, 2015), and low earnings and reduced career opportunities (McDonald et al, 2009:153-4). Meanwhile, the findings could evidence greater choice among men using part-time.…”
Consequently, FWAs have negative impacts for some women, on job (part-time when used for extended periods, flexi-time), leisure (job-share, flexi-time), and life satisfaction (job-share).

“…Although each country has its distinctive characteristics, and while intra-country differences also exist (see Green and Livanos [2015] for a study of INE at regional level in the UK and Jacquemond and Breau [2014] for a spatial analysis of precarious employment in France), there are certain commonalities across neighbouring countries as far as the economy, the state of the labour market, and the institutional context is concerned.…”

“…Building on a study by Green and Livanos (2015) in the UK, this article brings involuntary part-time employment and involuntary temporary employment together simultaneously in a single framework reflecting individuals' experience of both hours of work and type of contract. It isolates the 'precarious' and 'lack of choice' elements spurred employers and workers to seek enhanced flexibility in work organisation (Kalleberg, 2001), resulting in more employment deviating from the standard full-time permanent employment relationship between employee and employer.…”
In some countries in Europe the economic crisis starting in 2008 was marked not only by a rise in unemployment, but also by increases in individuals in part-time and temporary working, so emphasising the need to examine employment composition as well as non-employment. The promotion of non-standard forms of employment -such as part-time and temporary workinghas been part of Europe's employment agenda, but directives have also focused on raising the
“…Job-to-job moves were relatively rare, and employees tended to keep their jobs, though under less favourable conditions. Similar phenomena were captured by Green and Livanos (2015) in the concept of involuntary non-standard employment, consisting of involuntary part-time and involuntary temporary work. The authors point out that weaker regional economies experienced larger than average shares of involuntary non-standard employment (North East, Wales, West Midlands, and Northern Ireland), while the opposite occurred in core regions.…”
