Many variables can be analysed to characterize the past and present employment status of women. Among these parameters are indicators of part-time employment; these, together with factors such as age, nationality and education/training, are of crucial importance in obtaining a proper understanding of this question. The following hypotheses are addressed in this study: that women are more likely than men to be in part-time employment; that this likelihood is even greater for married women; that the higher the level of educational qualifications, the lower the probability of being in part-time employment; and that the female immigrant population is less likely than non-immigrant women to be in part-time employment (however, nationality has no such influence among the male population). Women are much more likely than men to be employed part-time, and it is often said that women prefer this type of contract in order to reconcile family life with their work. However, we show that this is not true. The probability of part-time employment among married women wishing to work longer hours is much higher than that for men. Accordingly, part-time employment contracts for women would appear to be more an imposition by society than a personal preference
