Multiple Jobholders Responsible for Majority of "Full-time" Employment Growth

``In December, year-over-year (yoy) growth in multiple jobholders rose to an 11-month high, while yoy growth in single jobholders eased to a three-month low. Specifically, since May the number of multiple jobholders has increased by 752,000, while single jobholders have increased by 429,000. In other words, multiple jobholders have been responsible for 64% of the net job gains since last spring. The disproportionate importance of multiple jobholders -- forced to cobble together a living -- shows why the labor market is weaker than it seems.''
