President Obama’s health care reform is prompting employers to hire
more part-time and temporary workers to escape paying benefits under a
mandate that goes into effect next year, amplifying a trend toward
transient employment that took hold during the recession, according to a
growing number of economic indicators.
Hardest hit by the move toward cutting work hours and increasing temporary hiring are lower-income workers, millions of whom already lack health insurance and are afflicted with constant turnover in jobs at fast-food restaurants, big-box retailers and other businesses with large numbers of low-paid staff.
