“Underemployment” has also improved very little in the recovery.
- “The number of workers who want a full-time job but have had to settle for part-time hours shot up from 4.3 million in the first half of 2007 to 9 million by the spring of 2009…and has not improved much this year (2011). If businesses had work to be done but were wary of making new hires, then they would ramp up the hours of their existing workers.”
