Source: Understanding Society waves 2–4.n = 117 for flexible work; 115 for flexitime as only two observations exist for flexitime in wave 4 only; 114 for telework as only three observation exists for telework in wave 2 only, 112 for flexible time and place. There are no women who work in a small part-time job in wave 1 in this sample. Same controls as Table 1 except for number of children. Detailed results are in Appendix 2, available online as a data supplement.
