Part Time Jobs

What comes to your mind when you hear “ Part time jobs “ ?

A job which can be done in your leisure time ?
A job which can be done from the comfort of your home ?
A job which can be done at your convenience ?
A job which can be pursued as a passion ( if you are not satisfied with your existing job)?

The list goes on and on…… right ?

Think of a situation where you are in to Full time Part time job. Feeling something contradictory? Yes, that is where the world is taking us to.

In India, when comparing to the earlier days, HR department is becoming more and more strategic in nature. Organisations are looking for more creative options to fulfill the requirements in a less time and less cost. The obvious solutions would be to hire people who work at their conveniences which decrease the cost of work and also increases the productivity. Advanced countries have already gone through this way, and found successful to a certain extent. Now the turn is of INDIA, one of the youngest countries in the world.

The challenges ahead to inculcate a habit of doing part time jobs, in India.

General
Its been perceived that, Indians at their hometown are less productive than at their overseas environment. In effect, in India, a lot of people are spending their time unproductively - Infact, if we go to country side, we can see youngsters wasting their most valuable time by just playing cards or gossiping. - Elders or those who have experienced the fruits by working part time, should start propagating the importance of part time jobs, and its effectiveness.
Habit of utilizing the free time effectively should be nurtured, which might help them to cover up their petty expenses.

Organizations

Organisation should build a fool proof, genuine system which can increase the trust and credibility of part time jobs. Once people are confident that part time jobs are a good source of income, more people will get attracted towards that, which will be benefited to both the parties – Employers and job seekers.
Organisations should propagate the importance of Part time jobs among youngsters, which happens to be the largest pool of population in India.


Society
Parents should help their kids to practice the habit of earning while they learn. At the same time, parents should also be very careful that their kids are not carried away with the flow of income they have.

So let’s start enjoying benefits of Part time jobs… and probably after few years we will start enjoying the fulltime part time jobs.
