(Washington Post) — Employers in the Washington-Baltimore region offered part-time workers better perks this year, such as paid days off, in lieu of creating full-time positions, according to an annual survey of human resources officials to be released Tuesday.
This year, 73 percent of employers participating in the fifth annual Washington-Baltimore Metro Region Benefits Survey Report said they offered leave benefits to part-time employees, compared with 61 percent last year. Many extended medical, dental and 401(k) plans to employees who worked as few as 20 hours a week.
