Part Time
Roles at reduced hours, pro-rated. Who part-time suits, and how to check the culture treats it fairly.
Knowledge
Part-time, in plain terms.
Part-time is a role at reduced days or hours, with pay, holiday and benefits pro-rated. Like full-time it describes the working week, not the length of contract. Done properly it is a structure that fits real lives, not a lesser version of a job.
It suits parents, returners, people building portfolio careers and anyone studying alongside work. The culture test is parity: ask how part-time colleagues fare at review and promotion time.
