Presently, different types of employment are increasing, especially the number of female pert-timer workers has increased dramatically. This study attempted to explore which factors will contribute to satisfaction and motivation to work for female part-times. A questionnaire survey was conducted in 1994, and the 620 usable data (response rate 31%) were available for the present study.
