Infographic description

The title of the infographic is "Employees in time-related underemployment have lower hourly wages than other employees"

This is a horizontal bar chart.

The horizontal axis starts at 0 and goes to 40 by increments of 5.

There are two series of bars, the first refers to employees who did not want to work more hours and the second to employees who wanted to work more hours.

The top half of the horizontal bar chart shows the average usual hours worked by employees in their main job. This is further subdivided by whether the employee works full or part-time.

Among part-time employees, average usual hours worked were 18.4 among those who did not want to work more hours and 18.1 among those who wanted to work more hours.

Among full-time employees, average usual hours worked were 39.1 among those who did not want to work more hours and 38.0 among those who wanted to work more hours.

The bottom half of the horizontal bar chart shows the average hourly wage in dollars. This is further subdivided by whether the employee works full or part-time.

Among part-time employees, the average hourly wage was $26.03 among those who did not want to work more hours and $22.62 among those who wanted to work more hours.

Among full-time employees, the average hourly wage was $38.92 among those who did not want to work more hours and $30.11 among those who wanted to work more hours.

Note(s): Employees aged 15 to 69. Employees who wanted to work more hours also needed to be available to work those additional hours the previous week.
