part-time pay

Reduced-hours compensation

Part-time pay is compensation for work performed on a less-than-full-time schedule.

The term typically appears in discussions of employment benefits, wage calculations, or job listings: The part-time pay wasn't enough to cover rent.

Part-time workers often receive lower hourly rates or fewer benefits than their full-time counterparts.
