WZB-Studie: Atypische Beschäftigung betrifft oft Frauen, Junge und Geringqualifizierte
Press release

Women, youths and unqualified workers in Europe are particularly often employed with limited contracts or in part-time jobs. People under 30 years of age and unqualified workers are even less likely today to be employed with an unlimited full-time contract than in the mid-1990s. At the same time, there is an increase of flexible forms of employment with growing numbers of women and older people (50 to 64 years of age) who are working. A study that documents the development of atypical employment from 1996 to 2009 in twenty European countries came to this conclusion.
