194. Current Employment & Preferences4.1. Standard and Non-standard Employment PatternsWe start the analysis of current employment and employment preferences among surveyrespondents with information about standard and non-standard employment patterns. Many ofthe nurses who participated in this study have changed employment status since they first startedto work at the hospital. The vast majority were initially employed on a full-time or part-timebasis, and 17% were in casual jobs. At the time of the study, however, almost 60% ofrespondents were in full-time positions, with 33% and 8% in part-time and casual jobsrespectively. [See Table 7]. Of those who worked full-time when they first started, 69.3% (402nurses) currently work in full-time jobs. Of those who worked part-time when they first started,45.3% (255 nurses) currently work part-time. Of those who worked casual when they firststarted, 25% (60 nurses) currently work in casual jobs. These findings suggest that many nursesdo not stay in the same employment status throughout their careers.We sought information from survey respondents about the reasons for their full-time,part-time, or casual employment at the hospital. For those working full-time, the mostcommonly given reasons for this employment status were the income that full-time work brings,benefits package, stability of hours, and job security associated with full-time work. Part-timenurses and those in casual nursing jobs reported very similar reasons for their employment status.Control over the work schedule, self-fulfillment/enjoyment, and preferences for pay instead ofbenefits were the most commonly given reasons. Some part-time nurses and those in casual jobsreported that they were working in a part-time job because they could not find a full-time job or afull-time job that they like, or were working in a casual job because they could not find a fulltimeor part-time job [See Table 8].
