Question:
I must care for both my child and ill father. How can I find a part-time job that pays benefits? - R.E.
Answer:
Although easier than it was a decade ago, finding part-time work that includes employee benefits remains a challenge. As a quick solution, contact staffing agencies to check their benefits policies for temp and contract workers. Use the search alerts feature on job boards, including ‘part time’ and ‘employee benefits’ as criteria. And check out major retailers, banks, universities and hospitals for part-time-with-benefits opportunities.
Among the companies to consider: Starbucks, Whole Foods, Trader Joe’s, IKEA, REI, Barnes & Noble, Nordstrom, Lowe’s, Lands’ End, JC Penney and Cost Plus World Market.
Additionally, if a specific company is geographically convenient to you, visit its Web site’s careers section to see if part-time work with health-care and retirement benefits is offered.
