Women accounted for 158,000 — or around 98% — of the 162,000 jobs added in the month, according to a CNBC analysis of data released Friday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Men represent the remaining 4,000 net positions added, meaning their contribution to overall payroll growth was nearly 40 times smaller.
Because part time jobs tyou take up to make ends meet can be held multiple at a time.
That’s also why pay is low. They just aren’t weighted for (real) hours worked.
Whenever I see a “x amount of jobs created” headline, in my head it translates to “Yeah, but how many of those are actual decent full time positions with benefits?”
