This month’s employment data shows that voluntary part-time employment fell slightly in March, but is still up by more than 900,000 (at 5.0 percent) from it level of two years ago. Involuntary part-time rose slightly in March, but is down by almost 1.0 million from its level of two years ago. This is a possible dividend of the end of health-care-related job lock due to the Affordable Care Act.
