| Summary: | This study examines the probabilities and determinants of part-time working at home for
the case of Turkey. Data used in the study are based on Turkish Household Labor Force Survey of
2015. In the context of logistic regression model, a number of demographic, social, cultural, and
economic characteristics of employees are used to be main determinants of part-time working at home
or out-of- home. According to the results, there is an inverted U-curve relationship between age and
part-time working at home decision. For the males and females, the industries related with
professional jobs are more attractive for part-time working at home. In addition, as education level of
employee rises, the probability of part-time working at home also increases. |
