这项研究测试的预测，潜在的差异，在不同的开始和结束时间的工作日和从事工作从家里的能力，通过个人特征的就业。女性和非裔美国人更少获得灵活的工作时间表，即使在控制大多数工作特征的情况下。已婚男子有更多的机会，但前提是他们是父母，母亲只有在有学龄前儿童的情况下才有机会。兼职或长时间工作的工人获得的机会要多得多。在家工作在女性、已婚人士和父母中更为普遍，因此，相对而言更能反映家庭需求。研究结果表明，公共和组织政策可以集中在哪些方面，以便将灵活的工作安排更多地传播给那些最重视和缺乏灵活工作安排的人。
This research tests predictions regarding potential disparities among the employed by personal characteristics in the ability to vary the starting and ending times of their workday and engage in work from home. Women and African-Americans possess less access to flexible work schedules, even when controlling for most job characteristics. Married men have more access, but only if they are parents, and mothers only if they have pre-school-age children. Workers with part-time or long hours gain far greater access. Work-at-home is more common among women, the married and parents-thus, relatively more reflective of family demands. The results suggest where public and organizational policies could be focused to spread flexible work arrangements more toward those who both most value it and lack it.
