“…(Culler and Bazzoli, 1985;Dolado and Felgueroso, 2008) or public school teachers (Winters, 2010). It also reflects a general pattern in the broader society (Paxson and Sicherman, 1996;Averett, 2001), although women are catching up with men since the 1970s (Kimmel, 1995;Averett, 2001). Interestingly, however, Columns (2) to (4) show that this effect is completely due to female MPs' lower number of sideline jobs in the private sector.…”

This article examines whether sex matters with respect to a type of legislator behaviour that has thus far been neglected in the literature analysing the distinctive nature of female and male legislators: parliamentarians' outside interests. Using data for 614 German MPs, our analysis confirms that female MPs on average hold fewer outside jobs than men -especially in private-sector functions. We also find that individual characteristics such as political experience, having (young) children, and age reflect sources of this divergence. These findings and their implications are discussed in the light of extensive research on sex and gender effects in other political and labour market settings. (104 words)

“…Though the mean number of hours has fallen slightly during the recent economic downturn in both the US and EU economies, more than a quarter (27% in the EU and 28% in the US) of total work hours among multiple job-holders in the EU and US are still spent at a second job [4].…”

“…In addition, they also found that multiple job-holding is persistent over time and concluded that hours constraints is unsatisfactory as an explanation for moonlighting. PAXSON and SICHERMAN (1996), examined the patterns of mobility into and out of second job and concluded that multiple job-holding is a dynamic process with most workers experiencing it at some point in their working lives, as well as that the hours constraints explanation for moonlighting fails to account for the fact that over time workers can avoid hours constraints by searching for new jobs.…”

This paper studies the incidence of multiple job-holding in Greece and contributes to the literature by examining its determinants, its variance across different regions and the effect of the business cycle on its occurrence. The empirical analysis highlights the importance of both pecuniary and non-pecuniary motives behind multiple jobholding, and reveals significant variations in its incidence across regions, with areas that have a large primary sector having higher multiple job-holding rates. Finally, multiple job-holding is found to be pro-cyclical, with the probability of holding a second job estimated to increase during economic expansions.
