Publisher Description
INTRODUCTION Contingent work pertains to a job arrangement in which workers have no long-term employment contract or one in which the workers' minimum hours of work vary randomly (Polivka & Nardone, 1989). Employment practices such as part-time work, temporary work, employee leasing, self-employment, job contracting, and home-based work may be considered contingent when the worker involved does not have a long-term employment contract. In the Philippines, work that does not provide workers with security of tenure is classified as nonregular employment. Examples of nonregular employees are contractual, casual, commission-paid, part-time, seasonal, and probationary workers (BLES, 1998, 2004).
