Abstract

Alternative work arrangements, defined both by working conditions and by workers’ relationship to their employers, are heterogeneous and common in the U.S. This article reviews the literature on workers’ preferences over these arrangements, inputs to firms’ decision to offer them, and the impact of regulation. It also highlights several descriptive facts. Work arrangements have been relatively stable over the past 20 years, work conditions vary substantially with education, and jobs with schedule or location flexibility are less family-friendly on average. This last fact helps explain why women are not more likely to have schedule or location flexibility and seem to largely reduce hours to get more family-friendly arrangements.

其他工作安排
由工作条件和工人与雇主的关系定义的替代工作安排在美国是异质的和常见的。本文回顾了关于工人对这些安排的偏好、公司决定提供这些安排的投入以及监管影响的文献。它还强调了几个描述性事实。在过去的20年里,工作安排相对稳定,工作条件因教育程度不同而有很大差异,工作时间或地点灵活的工作对家庭的友好程度平均较低。最后一个事实有助于解释为什么女性不太可能有灵活的时间表或地点,而且似乎在很大程度上减少了工作时间,以获得更有利于家庭的安排。
