Abstract
The profiles of multiple jobholders and overtime workers are contrasted with those of employees working standard hours at one job. The latter hold one job either because they lack the opportunity for doing otherwise or because they are not interested in additional work. The data are based on a study among male urban employees in Israel. The relative importance of personal versus structural factors in determining the decision to work extra hours is assessed.Keywords
