We’re going to see a lot more part-time employment
This is from a few weeks’ back and I had been meaning to cover it:
Wal-Mart will drop health insurance benefits for its part-time workers, the New York Times reports this morning.
Sarah Kliff offers related comment:
The [ACA] law, however, is largely silent on the subject of part-time workers, and there are no penalties for not offering them coverage.
That makes the divide between “full time” and “part time” a key distinction for the health-care law, and one the Obama administration is fine-tuning.
It will not be an easy fine tune.
