Abstract:
The Work Schedules Supplement to the Current Population Survey will gather information on work schedules and work at home of the employed. Information will be collected to broadly categorize work schedules, including identifying shift workers and workers with flexible schedules, and people who work at home, including those who work entirely at home. The 2024 work schedules supplement will allow researchers and policy makers to evaluate how the number and characteristics of shift workers and people who work at home has evolved. Policy makers also can use these data to inform the design of regulations for different types of workers.
