Part-time - Number of employees and characteristics (annual)
Description
### Data
The data refer to employees whose working time is considered part-time, i.e. employees whose working hours are less than:
* the statutory working time or, where this is shorter than the statutory working time, the working time agreed for the branch or undertaking or the working time applicable in the establishment;
* the monthly duration resulting from the application, over that period, of the statutory working time or, if it is shorter, of the working time fixed by agreement for the branch or undertaking or of the working time applicable in the establishment;
* the annual working time resulting from the application over that period of the statutory working time, i.e. 1 607 hours, or, if it is less, the working time fixed by agreement for the branch or undertaking or the working time applicable in the establishment.
### Definitions
The **proportion of part-time employees** is calculated by relating the number of employees in part-time employment to the total number of employees.
The **part-time rate** refers to the part-time ratio declared by the employee at the time of the survey.
### Field
The data refer to all persons aged 15 or over in paid employment, excluding apprenticeship contracts, in metropolitan France exclusively until 2013, in France or metropolitan France as of 2014.
In addition,
* the geographical grouping ‘**** Metropolitan France’ includes all the French territories on the European continent (96 departments);
* The geographical grouping ‘France’ includes metropolitan France and the overseas departments/regions (DROM), with the exception of Mayotte.
### Source
The data used are taken from the INSEE Employment Survey, which is annual until 2002 and continuous since 2003. In this survey, the part-time/full-time classification is based on the statements of the employees interviewed in relation to the nature of their main job.
### Warnings
In 2021, the Employment Survey was [substantially recast] (https://www.insee.fr/en/statistics/5402123). The reconstruction of the series compiled from the Employment Survey is the subject of considerable methodological work at both INSEE and Dares. The series produced from the survey are not comparable to the previously published versions and are likely to be revised at a later stage, when there will be more setbacks on the different holdings of the long-term survey.
A note detailing the retropolation method is available [on our website](https://dares.travail-emploi.gouv.fr/donnees/le-temps-partiel#toc-t-l-charger-2)
