The findings reveal the ambivalent nature of part-time work in the Czech Republic. On one hand, part-time contracts are used in terms of positive flexibility – as a tool for women to combine working life with care for small children. On the other hand, the results show, that part-time work is predominant among groups marginalized in the labour and these jobs are therefore associated with lower level of security and higher risk of poverty.
